Tom Curtain is an entertainer, musician, horseman, businessman, entrepreneur and family-man living and working in outback Australia. Tom discovered his passion for songwriting while working in the stock camp of Mt Sanford Station, 500kms south of Katherine, NT. What started as some fun singing around the campfire, lead to the release of his first award-winning album ‘Smack Bang’ in 2004. Following this, he split his time touring with some of Australia’s biggest country music names including Sara Storer, The Sunny Cowgirls, Pete Denahy and The Davidson Brothers and training horses throughout the Northern Territory and Queensland.Life on the road was taking its toll so he stepped away from the music to concentrate on his horse-training business and young family. He thought if he could set up his horse-training business in Katherine, NT, then all the stations would send horses to him, rather than moving from station to station. The gamble of relocating his family paid-off, business was booking. That was until the 2011 Live Beef Export Ban. Overnight budgets were cut on stations which meant Tom was out of work. This lead to the launch of ‘Katherine Outback Experience’ (KOE) in 2013, a tourist venture on his property that celebrates life on the land through real horse-starting and working dog demonstrations entwined with live music and humorous bush tales. KOE operates in Katherine, NT from April to the end of October. For the remaining five months of the year, the team tour Australia with the horses, dogs and music. After a decade away from the music industry, in November 2017, Tom released his third album 'Territory Time' which debuted at No. 1 on the Australian iTunes Country Music Charts and climbed to No. 8 on the Australian iTunes All Genres Charts. 'Never Never Land', a duet with Luke O'Shea, went on to win two Golden Guitars at the 2018 Tamworth Country Music Awards for CMC Video Clip of the Year and Toyota Heritage Song of the Year.
