Pete Denahy
Pete Denahy is well known to Australian Bluegrass enthusiasts and musicians for jamming with the fiddle, singing country songs and outrageous comedy. He knew he wanted to be a country singer when at 13 years old he saw Slim Dusty in concert for the first time. Twelve years later he was in Slim’s band.
Pete is a five-time Golden Guitar winner and is very happy to have won three of those for his fiddle playing - an instrument that has kept him in work for many years. As well as working as a side man and guest artist for Slim, he has done the same for Sara Storer, Troy Cassar-Daley and Lee Kernaghan.
Pete visits Japan twice a year with Australian music fans to explore the bluegrass and country scene there.
He latest album is “She Loves Me To The Moon”, a traditional country album featuring fiddle, twangy guitars and wailing pedal steel.
