Ross Wilson is probably the only person in Australian rock music who can't make a comeback simply because he's never been away.
In a career that spans over 50 years, Ross remains one of this country's most respected artists. From Daddy Cool to Mondo Rock, as a solo artist, or as songwriter of A-grade classics such as Eagle Rock, Cool World and A Touch of Paradise, or producer of the legendary Skyhooks, Jo Jo Zep, The Johnny's, and more recently The Screaming Jets, Ross's involvement with success has continued unabated.
He fronted Daddy Cool and exploded out of the 70s playing rootsy 50s sounds. He then formed Mondo Rock who surfed the contemporary scene with chart topping singles & albums from the mid 70s to the late 80s.
As a solo performer and major songwriter, he continued to achieve success & make his mark during the 90s and beyond with his songs being recorded by artists as diverse as Jimmy Barnes, John Farnham, DEF-FX, Custard, Jennifer Rush (EU), Troy Cassar-Daley, Leslie Avril, Hey Gringo, You Am I, Uncle Bill, Keke (Spain), Renee Geyer, Christine Anu, Duane Jarvis (US), Elkie Brooks (UK), Ann Kirkpatrick & Lee Kernaghan, Sovereign, Pleasantville, Beccy Cole, Sonic Jihad, and The Wiggles! On trips to Europe & the USA he collaborated with O/S writers & concluded the millennium as a special guest performer on John Farnham's "I Can't Believe I'm 50" tour & live CD/DVD.
Ross continues to perform his unique songs everywhere as Ross Wilson & The Peaceniks.
