A collection of songs featuring Joe Cannon and Neil Porter.


Joe Cannon and I were founder members of "The Rusty Dusty Brothers" in during the mid 70's.  RDB played a wide range of country rock, and enjoyed some reputation on the Sydney music scene (mainly after I left the band it must be said).


We both took different paths through the following 39 years, although we each continued to write and ultimately record, a considerable catalog of original songs.


In 2023 we rejoined forces with some friends (from RDB and internationally) to develop a collection of our originals recorded with modern tech.


Of the 20+ songs we were working on, 4 reached final production and were "released" via BandCamp et al.  We've had radio exposure on 2SER FM's "Dirt Music" with Stuart Coupe and various community radio stations (including 2SEAFM in Eden and Sapphire Community Radio in Merimbula).


Musicians appearing are:

Joe Cannon - words & music, vocals, acoustic & electric guitars

Neil Porter - words and music, vocals, bass, guitars, keyboards, post production, editing, mixing

Roger Ilott - 12 string guitar, pedal steel guitar

Lee Williams - ukulele

Mike Watkins - drums

John Drews - keyboards

Kevin Purdy - post production, editing, mixing & drums

William Bowden (King Willy Sound) - mastering
