Dave Graney
Dave Graney (born Mount Gambier, South Australia) is an Australian rock musician and singer/songwriter.
Dave is generally accompanied by his partner-in-crime Clare Moore, and the pair have fronted such bands as The Moodists (1980-87), The White Buffaloes (1989-90), Dave Graney 'n' the Coral Snakes (1987-97), The Dave Graney Show (1998-03) and Dave Graney and Clare Moore...featuring the Lurid Yellow Mist (2004-).
"he abounds in sublime thought and love of humour, in dignified feeling and malignant passion, in elegant wit and obsolete conceit. He alternately presents us with the gaiety of the ballroom and the gloom of the scaffold, leading us among the airy pleasantries of fashionable assemblage and suddenly conducting us to haunts of depraved and disgusting sensuality….he turns decorum into jest, and bids defiance to the established decencies of life." A quote from the Dave Graney Show website.
