The Story


Over the past 35 years Dave Prior carved a career in the commercial radio industry, as an announcer, program director and General manager,
managing 8HA, in Alice Springs, 5CC in Port Lincoln, 5MU in Murray Bridge
and 96.5 & 98FM in Geraldton.

During his radio career his love for country music kept him busy in the
sidelines both as a performer, promoter and host of various syndicated
country music programs.

Now that he’s old enough to know better, he’s thrown his efforts into the
country music industry full time, performing at festivals, bush events and
hotels across the country.

Dave’s show is not only a mixture of his own songs and some classics
country tunes, but an entertaining journey filled with funny tales and good
country music.

If you want some good songs, and some good fun, Dave is a must at your
next event.

“I’ve got three chords, and I’m not afraid to use them,” said Dave.
