Fitzroy Xpress is a performing, touring and recording country rock outfit, which first hit the road in 1982.
Having endured the slog that accompanies long distance touring to take their music out to the people, these boys from the bush have developed a reputation amongst a few generations of loyal fans throughout Western Australia and more recently across state borders.
To keep with the times the band still travels regularly but they never lose touch with who they are and where they come from. For this reason Fitzroy Xpress will forever be based in their home town of Fitzroy Crossing,
which by the way is ' in the centre of the Kimberley' region of Western Australia.
It is with great pleasure that Fitzroy Xpress offer this Website to our loyal supporters.
Fitzroy Xpress also proudly supports the following Fitzroy Crossing Organisations
Well...it’s a funny thing this music industry business, some say its sink or swim.
So how has Fitzroy Xpress fared?
Well part of the answer is that I guess they have learnt to tread water.
Many bands come and go but not too many stand the test of time.
Although there have been a number of line up changes over the years, original guitarists Danny Marr and Alan Mclarty never lost sight of their vision to keep the music going. Playin since 1982 is a long time in one job by anyone’s standards.
The energy level required to sustain the desire to perform time and again over vast distances, sees the boys regularly focussing their energies around relaxing and tending to family and community duties between tours. The current of band members also include their Manager Jeremy Hart, Waylon Marr on drums, the acoustic rhythm guitarist Victor Marr and bass player Daron Keogh.
