About
Tex Perkins (real name Greg Perkins) is an iconic Australian singer-songwriter, who is widely known for fronting popular surf / roots band, The Cruel Sea, and legendary swamp / blues band, the Beasts of Bourbon. Tex has also been in Thug, James Baker Experience, The Butcher Shop, Salamander Jim, and Tex, Don and Charlie and released solo records with his own backing bands, The Dark Horses.
Born in Brisbane and currently living in Byron Bay, Tex Perkins, like Nick Cave and very few others, is one of Australia's rock and roll untouchables. A combination of talent, hard work, consistency and self-deprecating wit have effectively put Tex Perkins beyond criticism.
