==About==
Known by some as "The Bad Boys of Country,"〔 The Wolverines started in Australia in 1994 and said an encyclopedia's description of a wolverine being "a short- snouted, blunt-headed, long- haired, heavy-set, nocturnal, eat- anything, almost-extinct animal viewed by some people as a pest." was the inspiration for their name〔(No Fright In Sight On Night Of Wolverines, 15min.org )〕 Some of their songs have crass and sexual lyrics while others are heartfelt tributes. One of their hit songs, 65 Roses, tells the story of a small boy who could not pronounce Cystic Fibrosis, the condition which afflicted his sister and his entire family. The Wolverines recorded the song to raise awareness and research funds for CF with a percentage of all sales being donated to the association.〔 They have performed at shows and festivals throughout Australia and the world, including 40,000 at the Gympie Muster, 10,000 kids at Tamworth Kids Charity Concert, participated in the Australian April Middle East Tour de Force in 2007〔(PUBLICATION:NAVY ANNUAL 2007/WOLVES AT SEA )〕 & 2008〔(Tour de Force rocks and rolls into Afghanistan, 10 April 2008 )〕 and played for American Marines in Okinawa, Japan.〔(Australian Network Entertainment, The Wolverines )〕
“The band has such an amazing ability to bond with their audience. Their tongue in cheek humour and dedication to make music fun really connects them to their fan base." One Stop Country manager, Katania Young〔
