ROGER THWAITES


Hailing from Araluen, NSW, singer/songwriter Roger Thwaites was educated at Tudor House in Moss Vale and Scots College in Sydney. As a young man he travelled the world and wiped the dust off his shoes in Ankara, Istanbul, Allepo, Damascus and Baghdad. His first album '200 Years' featured two legends of aussie music: Dave Bridge (guitar) and Bryce Rohde (keyboards).  Over his musical journey he recorded on the RCA, Columbia and Pumpkin labels. He also wrote a book with his father Lindsay, The History Of Araluen which was published by the Braidwood & District Historical Society.
