Sum up your musical sound in four words: Soul, heart, honest, groove.

You've been nominated as a Bluesfest Discovery artist — what will people discover when they come and see you? They will hear songs from our debut album, Dawn, released late last year and they will experience the special soul connection that I have with The Putbacks on stage.

Do you feel any more pressure for performing now you have this title bestowed upon you? Yeah, I'm a little nervous, but most of all very excited to be honored with this title, thank you.

It's your first time at Bluesfest — what have you heard about it and what are you expecting? Its my first time I'll be playing with The Putbacks. I did Bluesfest with Diesel 'N' Dub last year, and actually dreamed of one day returning with The Putbacks to play songs from our album Dawn. I really cant wait!!

When and where are you playing at Bluesfest? 24 Mar, Delta Stage 8pm; 26 Mar, Jambalaya Stage 12pm.
