The Wolfe Brothers have burst into 2014 full steam ahead with their ‘eye of the tiger’ approach to chasing their dream. The band continues to ride the wave that started for them in mid-2012 when they captured the attention of the nation and were voted into second place in the final of the nationally televised show Australia’s Got Talent.
None of this was overnight success. The band has certainly earned their stripes over the years. The Wolfe Brothers consists of two brothers, Nick and Tom Wolfe, and their two best mates, guitarist Brodie Rainbird and drummer Casey Kostiuk. They all grew up together on the same road in a rural area just outside of Hobart. During their high school years they all began playing music in different bands, covering songs by their glam rock and heavy metal music heroes. After leaving school the four musicians got together to form The Wolfe Brothers, and for six years were weekend warriors playing covers in pubs and clubs across Tasmania. Their on-stage energy and tight sound earned them a legion of fans across the home state - everyone loved to party at their local with The Wolfe Brothers whenever they were in town.
When the band decided to record some original songs they were drawn to the music that they loved most – modern country rock. The Wolfe brothers, Nick and Tom, grew up on a healthy diet of Australian country music thanks to their Mum, and the rock element came from their Dad who still plays drums in his own rock band. After recording a four-track EP and selling thousands of copies at their gigs, the band put their own money into recording a full-length album. Laying down the album in their bedrooms and lounge rooms on a portable recording system, the band was shortly thereafter signed for management by Stephen White Management (SWM), joining the company that manages Lee Kernaghan.
SWM took these original recordings to a friend in Nashville by the name ofLuke Wooten, who had worked on a number of Lee Kernaghan albums. Luke is one of Nashville’s hottest producers and has produced albums forDierks Bentley, Brad Paisley and Kellie Pickler. He also owns and runs the world- class Station West Studios in Nashville. Luke loved the sound of the band and agreed to mix the home recordings from Tasmania. The end result became IT’S ON, the band’s debut album. It was the start of The Wolfe Brothers realising the dream of taking their music around Australia and making a living on the road. Since the release of IT’S ON in January 2013,The Wolfe Brothers have been on the road touring and playing to sell-out crowds across the country as Special Guests on Lee Kernaghan’s Beautiful Noise Tour. The tour has covered the length and breadth of Australia over the course of 20 months, starting in January 2013 and finishing mid-August 2014. It also meant the boys could quit their jobs – Nick was a postman, Tom was a builder’s labourer, Brodie was a refrigeration mechanic and Casey was able to leave his position as a dental mechanic who made dentures and false teeth.
Gary Stephen "Angry" Anderson is an Australian rock singer-songwriter, television presenter-reporter, actor, and political activist. He is the lead vocalist with the hard rock band Rose Tattoo since 1976 but is also recognised for his acting roles and charity work. Rose Tattoo's most popular single was "Bad Boy for Love" from 1977, which peaked at No. 19. In 1987, his uncharacteristic ballad, "Suddenly", reached number-two in Australia after it was used as a wedding theme for an episode of the popular TV soap opera, Neighbours. In November 1988 it peaked at number three on the UK Singles Chart after the episode was aired there. On Australia Day (26 January) 1993, Anderson was made a Member of the Order of Australia for his role as a youth advocate. According to rock music historian, Ian McFarlane,"over the course of a lengthy career, [the] gravel-throated vocalist ... has gone from attention-grabbing, rock'n'roll bad boy to all-round Australian media star". On 16 August 2006, Rose Tattoo were inducted into the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) Hall of Fame. In 2011 Anderson was a vocal opponent of carbon tax legislation proposed by the federal government led by the Australian Labor Party and announced that he had joined the National Party. In 2012, Anderson appeared in the SBS doco-reality show Go Back To Where You Came From.
