  • About Dave Evans (original AC/DC frontman)

  • Dave Evans originally arrived in Australia from Carmarthen Wales, aged five, and settled in North Queensland with his family. After forming his first band In Session in Charters Towers when he was seventeen he moved to Sydney where he formed a band (no name yet!) with Malcolm Young, Colin Burgess and Larry van Kriedt - a week later Malcolm's younger brother Angus joined. Malcolm and Angus' sister-in-law Sandra came up with the name AC/DC - to signify power and energy - and so one of the greatest rock and roll bands ever was born! Dave is now back in Australia commencing his 'classic aussie rock show' on June 13th in the Queensland resort of Twin Towns The last time Evans toured Australia was when he was the front man for the wild and frenetic Newcastle band, RABBIT, along with The Ted Mulry Gang. This time, Evans, currently based in Dallas, Texas, is hitting the road with his Texas Hard Rock Fiddler/ Lead Guitarist, Tuffy Burkhart, from his American band "The BADASSES" and his Australian crew for the "CLASSIC AUSSIE ROCK SHOW". After touring Europe and the USA for more than 2 decades, the original singer and co founder of AC/DC will be taking in regional centres along with capital city venues. Evans said “It's great to see my album SINNER getting an Australian release after its release in Europe and the USA. I'm looking forward to being a part of the CLASSIC AUSSIE ROCK SHOW and performing my own original brand of hard hitting Aussie Rock to Australian audiences after performing overseas” The Classic Aussie Rock Show will take you through Australian rock history finishing with the original tunes from Dave's new Australian release, SINNER. SINNER was recorded in Newcastle with some of the best rock musicians in Australia performing on the album and has received rave reviews from around the world. SINNER will be released on IMN Inc records in July!
