Peter Garrett

Peter Garrett is an Australian musician and activist who began his career in the early 1970s as the frontman of the rock band Midnight Oil, which formed in Sydney and is associated with alternative rock and post-punk. His emphatic vocal delivery and politically charged lyrics tied to environmental and social issues have shaped a musical style combining rock and protest songwriting, and his later shift into public service and activism further influenced his artistic identity.
