MARGARET FLANAGAN


Margaret Flanagan was a serious part of Australian music history and appeared on every major Australian TV Show including 6’O’clock Rock, Bandstand, Teen Time, Music Time, Star Time with John Laws, Revue 61, Revue 62, Mavis Bramston Show, Stuart Wagstaff Show, Magic of Music, Say it with Music, Don Lane Show to the iconic Graham Kennedy and Mike Walsh shows on Channel 10 and Channel Nine as part of The Flanagans. That would only be the tip of the iceberg when it came to shows.

The Flanagans were on every TV Network and in real terms one of the most sought after TV and Stage groups. You switched on your television to watch any major musical TV event there were the Flanagan’s who always came up with a new performance, extremely reliable, note perfect and made the audience extremely comfortable. In their first 20 years they would chalk up over 1000 TV performances.

1959 Paul, Margaret and Peter Flanagan started out as The Fauns and in a very wise move decided to take their family name Flanagan to headline their career and eventually became household legends.
