Sacred Cowboys

Sacred Cowboys began in 1982 as a Supergroup with founders Garry Gray from seminal proto punk outfit Negatives and Mark Ferrie from the Models. Purloining the band name from Get Smart and the Groovy Guru, the Cowboys left the Countdown set with Molly announcing that they were “... the worst band I've seen in 5 years...”.Many have worked with Garry in Sacred Cowboys over the years live and in the studio since the early days. Now, in 2025, the Supergroup tradition resumes seeing Garry and Mark reforming Sacred Cowboys with Timothy Deane, Anthony Paine and Damian Fitzgerald completing the new lineup. The outfit are writing a new album and play The Tote on May 23rd Sacred Cowboys put The Tote on the map in 1982 when their first show became a 3-month residency culminating in Molly Meldrum turning up, leading to their legendary Countdown appearance.They look forward to seeing you at The Tote.With special guests: The Dacios, Atomic Heart and DJ Michael Mulholland, host of Junkyard on 3PBS FM
