Tyrone Morris

Singer / Songwriter Tyrone Morris (Rusty) is an Anglo - Indian originally from India, who migrated to Australia from England in the 80's. His childhood passion for country music stemmed from his parents who had the wireless tuned to country music artists from Australia and the U.S.

His music career ambitions have led him to write his own compositions that have a soft rock core which, incredibly, holds together the Australian Country genre. His rhymes are that of the finest spices of India mysteriously and delicately drawing out the true Australian flavour and love for our relaxed easy going lifestyle.

Tyrone country music captures the true Aussie spirit, its "Larakins", the prehistoric and harsh beauty of this great isolated and sunburnt country.

Tyrone was born in Patna - India in 1951, but don't let that scare you away!

In the 80's Tyrone migrated to Australia after an exciting musical stint in England and has truly called "Australia Home".

Tyrone's ambitions during adolescence quickly turned to reality as he learned to play the guitar and formed a school band called "Hailstones". His band became a school favourite as he played at Birthday parties and school functions. Tyrone was proud being able to play in the BBC documentary about Anglo - Indians of India.

Tyrone explains that his "GURUS" Jim Reeves, Alan Jackson, Dwight Yoakem, Merle Haggard and The Beatles have contributed to his refined style where "The cocktail" with many influences produces one fantastic listening experience. Oh, and the fact he writes his own songs makes it very special.
"Land of Dreams" was one of Tyrone's many self written country music songs based on life experiences and fascination with Australia. This song is also Tyrone's personal favourite.
