Bluesfest Discovery Artist Focus Fantastic Negrito

Answered by: Xavier Dphrepaulezz

Sum up your musical sound in four words: Black roots music.

You've been nominated as a Bluesfest Discovery artist — what will people discover when they come and see you? They will see a band that loves to perform live. We will bring it, every show. 

Do you feel any more pressure for performing now you have this title bestowed upon you? I always feel pressure. I actually throw up before every show.

It's your first time at Bluesfest — what have you heard about it and what are you expecting? I've heard it's a festival programmed by people who love great live music. You can tell by the line-up. I've also heard it's got great fans. We can't wait.

Is it your first time to Australia in general? Anything else you're hoping to do while here? First time. I've heard great things about Aussie meat pies, and the pub culture. I've also heard great things about the Indigenous art and culture. I'm hoping to have some time to explore it all.

When and where are you playing at Bluesfest? 24 Mar, Mojo Stage 4pm; 26 Mar, Delta Stage 4pm; 27 Mar, Delta Stage 9pm; 28 Mar, Delta Stage 7.30pm.
