Now known for his shenanigans on Summer Bay, Cameron Daddo used to hit our screens in a different way. Part of a couple band as well as a solo performer, the Home and Away actor was quite the country star. Now, the 55-year-old has picked back up his guitar and hinted that a new band may be on the horizon.

Heading to Instagram, Daddo revisited his country roots, posting a black and white photo of the star rocking a cowboy hat back in the 90s.
“Putting a new band together and gonna git me a new hat,” the actor wrote, “tbt ’94 #sonandmoon #tour #2021”
The post definitely excited one famous fan.
Daddo’s Home and Away co-star, Georgie Parker, voiced her support for the throwback, commenting a simple, “Bloody Brilliant.”
While a big fan of the screen now, the 55-year-old has admitted that his passion lies with music.
Speaking to the Newcastle Herald earlier in the year, Daddo admitted that music has always been a pillar for the star.
“Music’s always been my backbone,” Daddo told the publication.
“It’s been a platform for me long before I ever became a public person, to what people know me now.”
The actor continued, “I always played and sang. It just happened that the acting and television took over before I really got my music out there.”
But Daddo has now found a way to combine both his passions.
Speaking to The Morning Show back in May, the soap star discussed how Home and Away has allowed him to revisit his musical roots.
“Oh, I’m so excited you brought that up!” Daddo emphatically exclaimed when asked about his future musical endeavours.
“Well, I’m doing Home and Away and I’m playing a singer-songwriter”
“When I took the role, they asked me if I would be interested (in doing some music).”
“I said, “Why don’t we use my back catalogue? I’ve got three albums worth of stuff.”
As well as getting to revisit his old hits, the actor is also told the hosts that he is penning new music for the show, stating, “I’ve got a bunch of new music coming up soon.”
Exciting times ahead for the talented star!
