TARQUIN - Celebrating 50yrs

Celebrating 50yrs as one of the first bands playing West Coast Rock in The Illawarra in the 70's - TARQUIN.
Renowned music historian Glenn A Baker once claimed the World’s best music scene throughout 70’s and 80’s was the South Coast of NSW Australia. He was not wrong!
At The epicentre of this music explosion was the city of Wollongong and out of this “City of Steel” came the band TARQUIN.
Boasting a six piece line up and performing covers by the Eagles, Steely Dan, Boz Scaggs, Rod Stewart and other giants of the rock scene, Tarquin quickly gained a faithful following in Wollongong Newcastle Sydney and the far South Coast.
This hard working band collaborated on several popular original songs, their debut single, a double “A” side featuring Summer Ladies / Joker went straight into the top 20 Australia wide.
