Ernest Aines is an award-winning Australian singer-songwriter and Australian Folk Artist of the Year Award 2023 nominee. Enchanting audiences with his soulful voice, masterful guitar skills, and rhythmic stomp box have drawn comparisons to the work of Ray LaMontagne, Bon Iver, Jeff Buckley, and on more recent releases, Nick Drake.
Instagram Spotify Camille Trail is carving a path as one of Australia’s most respected up-and-coming indie-folk singer-songwriters. Her recent offerings ‘Gotta Get To Know You’ and ‘twenties’ have led to stylistic comparisons with Lizzie McAlpine & Maggie Smith.
