Cast: Glenn A. Baker, Troy Cassar-Daley, Bill Chambers, Kasey Chambers
For over 50 years country music legend Slim Dusty and his wife Joy McKean trail-blazed their way across Australia performing, writing and collecting songs of the bush and its people. They created a musical legacy that to this day continues to entertain and inspire, a catalogue of plain speaking yet profoundly insightful music documenting the rural Australian experience.
Theirs is perhaps one of the greatest partnerships in Australian music history. SLIM and I is a feature documentary that tells the incredible story of that partnership and of the woman who lived beside, rather than behind, the legend. Australia’s own “Queen of Country Music”, Joy McKean.
