Gidday heres a bit about me,
I was born in Sydney on the 25th September, 1959
I spent my childhood up at Nulla Nulla Creek, we then moved into the city of Kempsey town where Dad drove one of the big old log trucks and Mum was a nurse at Kempsey hospital. My Mum grew up with Slim and Shorty and has many a story to tell about there childhood days in Nulla and their records were played constantly in our home.
I guess this is where it all started for me, as a young lad I can still remember the afternoons we would all sing up a real Country Storm around the piano .I bought my first guitar at the age of fifteen and learnt to pick strum with a country run. I then started to learn how to yodel and in no time at all I was yodeling up a an Old Buddy Williams Song
I started entering Country Festivals around Queensland where I was taking many awards for Yodelling and Bush Ballad songs. This led me to put pen to paper and I wrote “Nulla Nulla Winds”, the song about my home in Nulla Nulla Creek in the winter time. I then wrote “All About the Bushland” about the largest Cedar Tree the world had ever seen, which my Great Great Grandfather found and felled in the 1800’s. My other original songs include “A Dusty Old Time Ringer”, “Jacko’s Last Ride”, “Knocking Country”, “A Rough Tough Bush Man”, “Call of Mt Lindesay”, “Mitchell He Could”, “Bangtail Muster”, “Just Think Back” and “Shadow of Mt Lindesay”.

In late November Pete was back in the Studio at Regency Sound with Marc Lea to produce a great 12 track album with 5 of his own original songs including the title track “Call of Mt Lindesay”.
2005 Was a great start to the year at Tamworth where the new album, “Call of Mt Lindesay” was released, which was received very well and there was plenty of air play on FM and Community Stations.
