Rowan Galagher (The Mad Pride)

The Mad Pride is the creative outlet for Australian singer/songwriter & multi-instrumentalist Rowan Galagher. From origins in folk noir, Rowan evolved into baroque psychedelia, gothic post-punk & art rock. Ticking copious boxes including neurodivergent, optimist, anarchist, gardener, graphic designer & aspiring sound engineer, Rowan has continued with both. The ticking is involuntary and associated with a neurological condition called Tourettes Syndrome. The boxes (effects pedals with which he is completely obsessed) are a continuous source of serotonin - and poverty (and irony). 

The Mad Pride is a reference to the movement “MAD PRIDE” which aims to increase awareness about neurodiversity, the mental healthcare system and the struggle of psychiatric survivors.
