Mark Drummer / Vocals
Mark began his drumming journey in 1987 with the Macleod Technical School Band, describing it as one of the best bands he’s ever played with. His career took him through various cover bands in Melbourne's pubs and clubs, and he’s had the chance to perform with theater productions like *Guys and Dolls* and *The Boyfriend*. At just 17, Mark played with notable acts including the Seekers and Rolf Harris.
He has also been part of popular funk bands Wilde Style and Funky Fever, and spent 12 years drumming for the Rohan Hammit Elvis Show at major functions across the country. Inspired by local Australian drummers such as Darryn Farrugia and Jon Salerno, Mark has a deep appreciation for 70s and 80s music. His all-time favorite song is “Play That Funky Music,” a tune he loves to perform.
Anthony Lead Guitar
The youngest member in the Long Gone Daddys' lineup, Anthony 's musical tastes do not reflect his age. Playing in 70's and 80's cover bands since he was 16, he has always had a passion for playing not only this era of music but all genres. He loves playing guitar and is rarely without one.
Anthony has been jamming with Frank since he started playing guitar and they have developed a natural chemistry together. Previously, he has played in various venues around Melbourne in bands, acoustic duets, and as a solo performer. Anthony loves getting up on stage and performing.
"Playing with the Long Gone Daddys is an amazing experience. It's fantastic how passionate everyone is and how we share our love of classic music."
Frank Rythm / Lead / Vocals
Frank began playing guitar at fifteen but took a hiatus to focus on family. In January 2007, he reunited with Angelo for a jam session, leading to the formation of The Long Gone Daddys. Joined by Franco and later Paul, Frank rediscovered his love for music and now performs with boundless energy. Grateful to Angelo and Franco for reigniting his passion, Frank brings an electrifying presence to every performance, creating unforgettable experiences for audiences. Music has given him a new lease on life, and he’s excited to continue playing with the band for years to come.
Greg Bass Guitar
Our newest member of the band. Greg filled in and saved our butt when really needed. We were stuck for a bass player for a wedding Greg filled in and we convinced him to stay. With years of experience in the music industry he brings great talent and flare and also a great backup vocalist.
We need to be able to load and unload PA instruments and amplifiers and have access to venue before event for set up and sound check. We require a covered area protected from wind, rain and elements. We require a flate concreted or floored area with ample power supply.
