Beloved Australian musician and former member of folk-rock band Things Of Stone & Wood, Justin Brady has lost his home in the Victorian bushfires.
As reported by The Age, Brady’s Karbeethong Hill home was destroyed by the fires and he was forced to seek refuge on nearby waters in his canoe, describing the situation as “apocalyptic”.
"I lost everything pretty much," Brady told The Age.
"I built the house 25 years ago but only just recently, the last three months, I decided to live there as my base. Previously I had lived here but toured too.”
Before vacating the premises, Brady was able to save a violin, harmonica and mandolin.
A prolific session musician and now music teacher, Brady has collaborated with John Farnham, The Black Sorrows, James Reyne and more over the years.
