The Cruel Sea

The Cruel Sea is a multi-ARIA Award winning 90s Australian rock/blues outfit. Originally an instrumental band focused on surf sounds, the addition of vocalist Tex Perkins (also a member of The Beasts Of Bourbon and a solo artist) proved an inspired decision. Combining the charismatic Perkins with the highly talented musicians created an unstoppable force through much of the 90s. Members of the band continue to perform, though with the exception of Perkins, most activity is fairly low key.

Git

El grupo se formó al separarse de la banda de Charly García, que fue el productor de su primer disco. Los temas Acaba de nacer y La calle es su lugar (Ana), de la primera placa, los llevó al reconocimiento del público. Es por amor, tema destacado de su tercer álbum, los llevó al éxito.
