Garry Carson Jones - Moonshine & Whiskey


This track epitomises the sound of Southern Country Rock. With its engaging lyrics and a foot stomping backbeat, complimented nicely by the mildly distorted overtones of the rhythm guitar, this one is a definite cracker!

Garry began his music career at the age of ten and wrote his first song at the age of fourteen. He is an accomplished musician and singer-songwriter and has accumulated a vast repertoire of original and cover songs. Garry resides in the Bega Valley on the beautiful Sapphire Coast of NSW. He originates from the Monaro Region, born in a small country town called Delegate (pop. 700), where he was raised within an immediate and extended family of avid musicians. In 2001 Garry was the outright winner of the Merimbula Country Music Talent Quest winning both Singer-Songwriter and Recorded Songwriter sections.

During 2003 he made the pilgrimage to Tamworth, buoyed by his local success, and entered the Tamworth Songwriters’ Assoc. Tiara Awards, and was rewarded with a berth amongst the finalists. That same year Garry was a finalist in the Steel City Champion of Champions in Newcastle and came third in the National Champion of Champions showcase in Canberra.

 In 2005 he again entered the Tamworth Songwriters’ Assoc. songwriting contest and again was reward with two songs amongst the finalists.

Garry has just finished recording his latest album Mogareeka Moon featuring a combination of many different aspects of his musical versatility. Recorded at Rolling Wheel Studio in Orange NSW by Pat O’Donnell of O’Donnell Brothers fame.

 Mogareeka Moon is a sweet and sassy collection of ten original songs by Garry which are a testament to the hard graft he has put in since he wrote his first song at the age of 14. The first single was released was “Moonshine and Whiskey” which made the top 30 of the country music charts. The song “Mogareeka Moon” was a semi-finalist in the International Songwriting Competition.

“The Poddydodgers” released a country rock album called Spirited featuring fifteen original songs all written by Garry, with the single “Jack Frost” getting airplay on CMC. Garry also recorded an acoustic album Atonement featuring 13 heart felt original songs. His band "Mojo" released an Ep called Sunrise with six originals and one cover
