SUN | 2.30PM-4PM | CONCERT Glenn Shorrock & Band

A lot has been said about Glenn Shorrock – but one description he prefers above all others is ‘performer’.

British born Glenn emerged from the migrant town of Elizabeth, near Adelaide in South Australia. A hotbed of beat activity in the early sixties, Elizabeth became the home of a number of amateur ensembles including The Twilights, a group started by Shorrock in 1964, when a chapter of Australian rock history commenced.

Glenn is well known in his role as lead singer of Little River Band. Managed by long time friend, Glenn Wheatley, Little River Band cracked the lucrative United States market in 1976, and began a string of eight Top Ten Hits in the U.S.A. and around the world. The band has sold in excess of 25 million albums, often being credited for opening the door for many Australian acts on the international circuit.

In 1995, Glenn fronted Little River Band during their 20th year anniversary, three and a half-month tour of the United States. His song writing credits include the international hits Help is on its Way, Emma, Home on Monday (co-writer Beeb Birtles), Long Jumping Jeweller, Shut Down Turn Off, My Own Way Home (co-writer Brain Cadd) and Cool Change. Glenn’s lasted CD was released in 2000: Spin Me ‘Round, co-produced with Brian Cadd.

‘I have been blessed with a long and successful career and I’m doing some of my best work right at the moment’ says Glenn who intends to begin work on his autobiography ‘after a good lie down’!
