Wayne Duncan and Gary Young have never been far from the Music Industry
limelight, since the days of 'The Rondells',
2/4's of the legendary 'Daddy Cool' and members of too numerous bands, over the years, have kept them-selves 'in demand' as one of Australia's tightest Rhythm
Sections.Gary Young also has an extremely popular radio program 'Chicken Mary' on Melbournes'
Triple R FM (Mondays 2-4pm)

Ex-Rondell/Lincoln, Denis Tucker is still rockin' & knockin' 'em dead from his home in Victorias' High Country

An exceptionally fine guitarist and songwriter, Bernie has been part of the Australian music industry for more than 30 years. As a member of the "Rondells" in the '60s, he worked with many well-known local artists, and was the guitar soloist on "I Belong With You" - the premier hit recording for Bobby Bright and Laurie Allen. As a member of the band Saltbush, formed in 1975, they toured Australia and supported Ray Stevens. They recorded several albums and played at the Tulsa Festival in Oklahoma, US. Bernie joined Stoney Creek in 1984 and gave the band a new direction with his experience as a writer, guitarist, dobro and fiddle player. Bernie has since recorded another solo album.

Another 'Rondell' still rockin' & 'Rollin'
