Any Austrailian listeners - Bernard Fanning

Posted by: Diccus62 on 18 September 2006

Heard this guy's record on Radio 2 tonight and was mightily impressed. New record Tea and Sympathy out on Lost Highway. Singer songwriter stuff. Good to hear your opinions anyone. Let's see him in the UK soon.

Take care

Hi Munch

I think it must have crashed with the weight of traffic from my link Big Grin

Only heard a couple of tracks so hard to say. I guess its my usually stuff with a hint of country in the song Songbird. A bit like Ray Lamontagne who is IMO superb listen to Ray

Sorry don't know his stuff well enough to give a decent comparison

Thanks for the interest

Great album, have it on CD & Vinyl. If you are a Powderfinger fan this is more of the same with a acoustic/country slant.

New Powderfinger album out early next year. Smile

If Bernard Fanning or Powderfinger are ever around you area and playing live you have to go and see them. Just amazing. One of the best bands live.
