Tom Budge
as Trev
At 24 years of age Tom Budge is considered by many to be the next Aussie actor to make a big impact overseas. He burst onto the big screen as the unforgettable Pickles in Paul Goldman's highly praised Australian Rules. Since then he has appeared as Samuel Stote, the sociopathic bushranger in Nick Cave and John Hillcoat’s magnificent, award winning film The Proposition. Most recently he has starred as the lovable innocent Johnno, in the WWII thriller Kokoda and as Schumann in Neil Armfield’s Candy.
Not only has Tom impressed film critics but his debut stage performance, in the Company B Belvoir St. production of The Lieutenant of Inishmore, earned him a Best Supporting Actor nomination at the 2004 Helpmann Awards. It also caught the eye of the producers of Last Train to Freo.
When Tom isn't acting he is busy indulging in his other passion, composing and performing original music around his home-town of Melbourne, Australia. He has created and fronted many bands such as The Wild Flowers Of Australia, The Shot-Up Apples and more recently a new Country/Blues band, Space Coyote.
Jeremy and Tom played a twenty-five minute acoustic version of Ed Keupper’s serene machine at the last train rap party.
