Peter Coad OAM – Dead Man’s Hill (Peter Coad) Peter has built a long recording career in music, writing stories of Australian characters, places and happenings. Peter’s single is based on a true story with musical backing by Coad Sisters. It’s the story of an unknown man buried close to the railway line between Yunta and Oodla Wirra SA on the Barrier Highway between Adelaide (SA) and Broken Hill (NSW).
“I have been passing that sign all my life, and recently, I took time to stop. I researched the story, and although a sad one I feel the song is a positive as this unknown man has not been forgotten, and those who hear the song, will now know the meaning behind the sign and cross on ‘Dead Man’s Hill’.”
