Bush Band Images Needed

From: GUEST,Warren Fahey

I am currently undertaking a survey on Australian bush bands - old and new - and after photographs, drawings and cartoons. There are or have been bush bands in the Uk, America and Germany and I'd be particularly interested in any images of that exotic crew. I am attempting to trace costume, instrumentation, key band members, repertoire, location etc and the information will eventually appear on my Australian Folklore Unit website www.warrenfahey.com

Please send scans directly to me at wfahey@bigpond.net.au

Any supporting info would also be appreciated.

Mudcatters, I am currently researching Australian 'bush bands' and their evolution from their earliest appearance through to nowadays. I am after scans of photographs, drawings, cartoons etc from such bands throughout the world (yes, there have been bush bands in the UK and USA). In surveying this expression I hope to show changes in costume, instrumentation, repertoire etc. The final information will be posted on my Australian Folklore Unit website www.warrenfahey.com

Please send scans directly to me at wfahey@bigpond.net.au

Any additional info such as photographer, band names etc would be helpful and appreciated.
I am after all types of images - from festivals, clubs, BBQs and, of course, the band's own promo material.
