BiographyHistory

'Dennis O'Keeffe is one of the nation's leading performers of Australian traditional songs, and has been a successful song-writing teacher for over ten years. For as many years, he has led the Australian traditional song sessions at the National folk Festival in Canberra. Dennis plays the anglo-concertina, an instrument that came to Australia during the gold-rush of the 1850s. Dennis has been at the birth of hundreds of songs, having written some forty songs about Australian history, and nurtured many song writers from their first idea through the first public performance of their song. When he is not on the road performing, he lives in country Victoria.' (Source : Booktopia)
