Great Aussie Sounds

If your knowledge of Aussie music is limited to Olivia Newton-John or Kylie Minogue, try these links for some really great songwriting and fabulous sound.

The Greencards
Cool Aussie bluegrass; opening act for Bob Dylan, Robert Earl Keen, and Willie Nelson; playing big gigs throughout US now and based in Nashville and Austin

The Waifs
Try the audio clips on their site to hear their sound and their variety. I love Lighthouse.

Kasey Chambers
very generous site for downloads; unique voice and style. Try True Colours and Like a River.

Australia's answer to Bonnie Raitt
