Tumbleweed

Tumbleweed is firstly a highly influential Australian rock band from the 90's, a country rock band from Norway and a bonecrushing instro/surf band from Sweden. Tumbleweed (Australia) filled the stoner-rock void in Australia during the heavy grunge years of the 1990s.

Lead-singer, guitarist and songwriter Connie Ogan, Kurt Mottershead on bass, Owen Eales on guitar and Scotty Bairdle on drums bring twangy, love-washed tunes to life.
