Down Under

Trevor Conomy was a musician, working the pubs and writing songs around the same time as Men at Work. He followed the ‘Down Under’ case and has always believed that the story behind it is a great tragedy. Born in 1958 he played in rock bands during the 1980s and later taught English in Sydney. He now lives in central western NSW where he is building a house in the bush.

In 2019, John was appointed a member of the Order of Australia (AM) for his significant contribution to the performing arts and the community.
