I GET UP AGAIN: Brian Hooper Benefit – Perth

I GET UP AGAIN: Brian Hooper Benefit – Perth

20 April 2018 will see Gate One at the Claremont Showgrounds, Perth, host a star-studded benefit for iconic muso Brian Hooper.

An internationally renowned artist who has produced some of the finest blues and punk-based rock music in the last 25 years, Brian Hooper has, most notably, shared the stage and studio with two of Australia’s finest: The Beasts Of Bourbon and Kim Salmon & The Surrealists.

His musical legacy and influence is far-reaching and his life full of adventure and mischief, but unfortunately Brian was diagnosed with incurable lung cancer late last year.

Brian’s Illness has devastated his many friends in the Australian music industry, who are rallying to support him and his family.

With another huge benefit show already announced for Melbourne, his hometown of Perth now responds with an effort of their own with all proceeds donated to a Go Fund Me campaign.

It’s not the first time misfortune has knocked Brian down. After a freak balcony fall in 2004, doctors said he would never walk again. They were wrong. Now, Brian faces the toughest fight of all to get back up again. You can also support Brian at https://www.gofundme.com/BrianHooper
