The Genes<\/strong><\/a> are like that quiet, intelligent guy who doesn’t say much but when he does speak, you just have to listen.<\/p>\n

“EVERY recorded offering from The Genes has been an intimate document of the travels and travails, life and loves of Nolan Angell, who is surely one of the finest songwriters in this country. Pat Whyte (Courier Mail)<\/p>\n

If you have connected with the music scene anywhere across the east coast and beyond in the past 20 years, chances are you would have seen The Genes.<\/p>\n

The Genes began their musical journey busking in the Queen St mall in Brisbane in 1990. They progressed to pubs clubs and halls, playing around Australia with bands like Midnight Oil, Crowded House, Baby Animals, The Cruel Sea, Yothu Yindi and a host of others. They Have recorded 12 albums and now 36 years later are still enjoying playing their music to anyone who will listen , and plenty who won’t.<\/p>\n
