Shortly after the birth of their second child Kasey in 1976, and with their three-year-old son Nash, the family moved to central Australia's Nullarbor Plain.
The Chambers earned a living by hunting and trapping rabbits and foxes that raided Nullarbor poultry farms, then selling the pelts.
In 1986 the family moved to Southend, located on the southern coast of Australia, and they began playing as a band at local public houses.
In November 1993, the band released a debut album, Red Desert Sky, which included 17-year-old Kasey's first recorded song writing effort.
[4] The band's second studio album, Home Fires, was released in 1995, which featured the single, "Australian Son", which spent seven weeks on the country charts.
Contractually obligated to provide another album for their label, Massive Records, the Dead Ringer Band released, Hopeville, in 1998 consisting entirely of songs by other writers.
