DAVE MILLS

Dave Mills was born in the Berrington in the UK in 1935. At the age of 15 he started working in the coalmines and spent 10 years doing so. In his spare time he was a racing cyclist and at 19 started singing in pubs. At the age of 25 he married Jane Watson. He ended up in South Africa in 1969 for reasons I have no idea. He got signed to the Storm label and had a hit with "Love is a Beautiful Song". Albert Productions picked up the song and it went gold in Australia in 1971. Other charting singles in South Africa include "Theresa", "All The Tears In The World", "Home", "I Can't Go Home To Mary", "Tomorrow is Over" and "Mexico". All these songs were written by Terry Dempsey who won the SARI for best song for "Home". In 1970 Dave Mills won the SARI awards for best male singer and Country and Western singer. By 1973 he had moved to Australia and continued his recording career on the Warner Bros and ATA labels. Dave died in Perth in 2014.
