About this album
Bushfire is a vivid and spirited statement from The Bushwackers, blending country rock with Australian folk tradition and bush balladry. Issued in 1978, it builds on the band’s role in bringing local stories, vernacular humour and traditional material into the rock era, with songs rooted in Ned Kelly lore, outback travel and frontier myth. The arrangements pair fiddle, acoustic drive and rough-edged vocals with the energy of a working band rather than a polished studio act. As one of the group’s key late-1970s albums, it helped cement The Bushwackers as important interpreters of Australian identity in popular music.
