TREVOR McNAMARA

Trevor McNamara's career started in the 1960s Adelaide group Five Sided Circle. During that time he also wrote "H.M.S. Buffalo", picked up by psychedelic band Inside Looking Out for their last single. He left after two years and formed Musick Express. The group were always at the forefront of music during their time. The band played at most of the top venues during the late sixties including The Scene. They appeared on many TV shows, gigged extensively in Melbourne and toured throughout Australia.

They headed to Sydney as house band for the controversial stage production of Oh Calcutta! The band rehearsed the show for a month, however, Mr Justice Little in the Supreme Court described the show as “filth” and granted an injunction. What would have been the first production of the show outside the United States was closed before it opened and 80 cast and crew were dismissed This proved to be the end of the group. Their only single "Jackie's Thing / How Does Paternity Suit You" reached the Top 100 in 1970 but they quit soon afterwards. "Jackie's Thing" can also be heard on the excellent 'Let It Rock: Australian Pop Of The 70s Vol 6' compilation album. 

He then recorded enough material for a solo album, 'Yeah Captain' which was finally released in 1971 on the little Nationwide label and was highly touted by those who have heard it. He also released two singles ''Morocco / Country Corn'' and ''6,000 People / Southern War''. In the 90s he reformed The Five Sided Circle playing at exclusive clubs, and supporting acts from the '60s and '70s, eg, Moody Blues on their Australian tours. While music is his main love, these days Trevor is a successful businessman and contemporary artist, His paintings are featured all over Australia and the demand for his work grows daily.
