Eric Bogle is probably best known for his now iconic song The Band Played WaltzingMatilda,but he is far from being a one-hit wonder. His songs have been recorded by Joan Baez, MaryBlack, Donovan, Slim Dusty, John Williamson, Billy Bragg, The Pogues and The Furies, just toname a few.
With 14 albums to his credit, appearances at everymajor Folk & Country Music Festival inAustralia and overseas and a touring schedule that has included eight tours of NorthAmerica, 10 times round Europe and multiple Australian shows, Eric Bogle has decided thatit is time to take it easy.
Although he has now decided to stop touring overseas, Eric is still doing the occasionalconcert/festival in Australia as the spirit moves him, which he hopes to keep doing untilsomeone switches off the lights, which he further hopes will be around 2045AD.Country Music Capital News correspondent Jon Wolfe said recently,“I recommend that ifyou haven’t seen him live, put it on your to-do list and immerse yourself in the majesty of Eric Bogle and his music"".
