What is the best thing musically that's happened to you so far? I think the fact that I'm still going is the best thing. Currently about to release album four, that kind of knocks me out when I think about it.
What industry lessons would you like to take away from the BIGSOUND conference? I find BIGSOUND really energising. Music is a pretty solitary pursuit when you're a solo artist like me so being amongst my peers and talking shop, getting vibed up is what I'm looking forward to.
Why should people come and see you among the many cool bands at BIGSOUND? Look, come if you want to hear some love songs that might, at certain moments, make you think of Roy Orbison. Also, unlike lots of other singers I sing 95% of the notes in tune.

What acts are on your must see list at BIGSOUND? I'm excited to see Odette. She is good, like, actually properly good. And properly clever. I think this is one of her first shows ever so I want to see. Also Oh Mercy.
What do you reckon your percentage mix of business vs partying will be at BIGSOUND? I don't know who wrote these questions but to whoever you are: the problem with the music industry is that IT'S ALL THE SAME THING.
When and where is your BIGSOUND showcase? 7 Sep, 256 Wickham.
