by Geoff Achison
Veteran Aussie blues-roots artist Geoff Achison is a household name for many music fans in the more southerly states, a reputation he’s forged through decades of making consistently excellent music. Achison first cut his teeth as the young guitar gun back in Dutch Tilders’ band in the 80’s and has maintained a grueling touring schedule ever since, both as part of his band, The Souldiggers, and as a solo artist in Australia and overseas.
Achison is on the trail once again in support of his new album Sovereign Town, an acoustic, intimate, organic and decidedly song-driven collection of 12 tracks, inspired by the early days of Victoria’s gold rush, and recorded in Ballarat.
The Sovereign Town tour will see Achison playing both solo and band shows along the east coast throughout August and September, with a couple of favourite festivals along the way.
Check out the video for lead track ‘Skeleton Kiss.’
