SACRED COWBOYS are a moody hard rock band with a dry sense of humor. They started playing in murky Melbourne dive bars in 1982 attracting a rabid following. With the release of their iconic first single, Nothing Grows in Texas, they were catapulted to national TV notoriety on Countdown, Australia’s version of Top of the Pops. 2025 saw founders Garry Gray and Mark Ferrie enlist Timothy Deane, Anthony Paine, and Damian Fitzgerald. You will soon be holding in your hands the new album, ‘In the Manifesto.’
‘In the Manifesto’ was mastered by Mikey Young, who worked on the last six Mark Lanegan records and plays in EddY Current Suppression Ring. All new songs are written by Garry and the band. ‘In the Manifesto’ shows the Sacred Cowboys do not indulge in one musical style.
It’s a complex, atmospheric soundtrack with Gray’s uber cool delivery over sometimes sparse, sometimes weaving guitars and rich harmonies. Channeling a Sonic Youth ethos and grinding the gears in the engine room of the Cosmos Factory, ‘In the Manifesto’ is as wide and expansive as the Australian desert skies.
SINGING BIRD IS AN INCLUSIVE SPACE. WE DON'T TOLERATE DICKHEAD BEHAVIOUR. MANAGEMENT RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REFUSE ENTRY.
