New Farm Bonus - Bluey Creator Joe Brumm on Dave McCormack (Bandit Heeler)

When we caught up with former Brisbane Deputy Lord Mayor David Hinchliffe in his Fortitude Valley studio, he mentioned that the current vide game industry in Brisbane was a direct result of the music scene in the mid to late 90's.

In the 90's Dave McCormack was well known as the frontman for Brisbane indie band Custard, who'd had a string of hits on the ABC youth network Triple J.

Custard were regulars on the Australian festival circuit, with appearances at the Big Day Out, Livid Festival and Homebake.

The band are still touring and recording, and released their latest album 'Respect All Life Forms' in May of 2020.

In this bonus episode Bluey creator Joe Brumm shares a little about why he loves Dave voicing the character of Bandit.
