Normie Rowe & The Masters Apprentices

Normie Rowe was Australia’s first King Of Pop. He was Australia’s most successful pop idol during the explosion of pop music and fashion in the 1960s. He produced a string of hits that are an important contribution to the soundtrack of the Baby Boomer generation. “Que Sera Sera”, “Shakin’ All Over”, “It Ain’t Necessarily So”, “It’s Not Easy” and “Ooh La La”, among them, produced fan and media hysteria unseen before or since for an Australian artist. At the peak of his popularity, Normie was called up for Army service. His repertoire draws from the breadth of this extraordinary performing career. Normie Rowe AO is an Australian treasure and the consummate entertainer.
