Nobody could invent a character quite like Kinky Friedman, the stogie-waving, black-hat-wearing Texas Jewboy singer, storyteller, tequila purveyor, animal rescuer and full time iconoclast. Though renowned for penning some of outlaw country’s most outrageous songs, authoring bestsellers and running for governor of Texas, his 45-year career includes touring with Dylan’s Rolling Thunder Revue, recording with Clapton, most of The Band and Ringo Starr, appearing on Saturday Night Live and at the Grand Ole Opry, and writing one of Nelson Mandela’s favourite songs. He also became the protagonist of his own crime novels, because even he couldn’t invent a character that could out-kink Kinky Friedman.
A favourite of Australian audiences, Kinky revisits our shores with a brand new album, ‘The Loneliest Man I Ever Met’ – his first in 39 years!!
