Introducing Jimmy Cupples on lead vocals.

Jimmy was born in Scotland to singing parents who relocated to Australia in his early years and were determined their son would learn to sing correctly and guided him with a classical background…even welcoming him on stage as a young child. Their grand plan was going swimmingly until their son met a guy who loved Led Zeppelin! His parents were far from impressed by this new screaming style but Jimmy was sold and was soon ripping up venues with his incredible vocal range and technique. 

Jimmy’s career has spanned four decades and has included a feature role in the Led Zeppelin tribute show “ Whole Lotta Love” , recorded with his own band King Canyon as well as achieving runner up on the 2021 series of  The Voice. 

It’s been only since his first gig at the Sunshine Army Base where he showed up with his mic and guitar and was charged to get into his own gig! 

Often compared to the powerhouse that is Robert Plant, Jimmy laughs “ when you sing like Plant you do feel like some crazy woman who just escaped from an asylum”! Since he’s been with The  Filthy Animals we’ve not had to lock him up or charge him to enter his shows … .but we are always in awe of the incredible sound that is Jimmy Cupples!
