Prominently playing bass these days.

Brendon Manuel is an Denmark WA based singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, photographer, amateur film maker and ITC technician and best known in Denmark for his community based IT Support work at the Denmark Community Resource Centre and privately owned business, IT Support Denmark (www.itsupportdenmark.com).
As the lead singer of the alternative experimental metal band The Dirty Whittler (1997 – 2003) Brendon has performed extensively, toured nationally and released 3 albums. Brendon’s obscure influences in music led him into the “left of Centre” images he currently produces with his photography – Most recently is in a two piece bass and drum outfit EXIT TRAP featuring Dave Knox ex Subtruck, The Volcanics.

Gorjira, Leprous and If These Trees could Talk......to name a few.
