BIOGRAPHY
Johnny O'Keefe.... -has been described as 'The Wild One', Australia's 'King of Rock'N'Roll' and the 'Father of the Australian Record Industry'. He was all of these, but above all he was the greatest entertainer this country has ever seen. Johnny O'Keefe almost single handily established the Australian recording industry. He won over a very cynical recording company, radio stations and the Australian record buying public and his second to none career 29 Top 40 hits says it all.
But for Johnny O'Keefe, it is fair to say that we would not have the record industry in Australia that exists today. He fought long and hard till the day he died to promote Australian talent and to ensure that Australian artists were afforded the opportunity to record. His battle to ensure that radio stations gave Australian artists equal time to their overseas contemporaries is legendary. He gave Australians the opportunity to gain invaluable experience on Australian television before heading overseas. The salute to Johnny O’Keefe Show featuring the nine-piece Six O’Clock Rock Band, brings back the memory and the feeling of a Johnny O’Keefe performance. All of Johnny’s top songs are included in the show and it’s appeal reaches audiences far and wide. The show is also available for daytime cabaret performances with a reduced four-piece outfit.
