Dutch Tilders was born in the Netherlands in 1941 and immigrated to Australia with his family at the age of fourteen. He started playing guitar and singing the Blues in the coffee lounge scene of the early sixties and remains one of Australia's most established recording and performing Blues artists. The experiences of our Dutch Bluesman during his fifty years in Australia are shared through his song on many albums and introduce a unique style of Blues to Rock which is an obvious trademark globally forever.
