WHERE IS TOM BURLINSON NOW?

He may have hung up his riding boots and Driza-bone, but Tom Burlinson is very much in the public eye 40 years on from his first film role. Although Tom, now 66, went on to star in another horse-centric film, Phar Lap, these days he’s known more for his vocal cords than his roping technique.

Since 1990, Tom has been performing swing songs with a band and appearing in musicals such as Chicago. He also did a three-year judging stint on Australia’s Got Talent. The father of three is currently touring his Now We’re Swinging show.
