Warren Daly

Warren Daly was co-founder of the Daly-Wilson Big Band, named after Daly and trombonist/arranger Ed Wilson, and formed in 1968. In 1975, with corporate sponsorship, the band toured internationally including the Soviet Union. It has been described as "Australia's most commercially successful jazz orchestra".

Following a later split with Wilson, Daly formed the Warren Daly Big Band.

In the 1991 Queen's Birthday Honours, Daly was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) "for service to music as band leader and drummer".
