JohnWilliamson was looking forward to "one of the most relaxing gigs" of his life as The Golden Guitars Salute the Songs of JohnWilliamson...
John was recently in WA to help open the Yongergnow Australian Malleefowl Centre which has been created to support and contribute to the conservation and research of the Malleefowl and its habitat.
In 1969 JohnWilliamson wrote an infectious novelty song called 'Old Man Emu', and visiting Melbourne he was encouraged by friends to perform his song on TV's 'New Faces' program.
JohnWilliamson took that freedom and ran with it, delivering 'Mallee Boy', an album filled with storytelling that spanned from his own beginnings on that farm in the Victorian Mallee to every corner of the nation.
JohnWilliamson had become one of the few performers in the "country music" idiom embraced by rural and urban Australians alike.
