Nigel Wearne saunters after dark in the music of the night, blending blues, jazz and Americana-noir. Hailing from Gunditjmara country in the deep south of Australia, he’s a guitarist and multi-instrumentalist with diverse influences such as Nick Cave, Tom Waits and Rickie Lee Jones. A deep thinker and truth seeker with a penchant for all things peculiar, he sings of human frailty, grace and the cosmos; songwriting that cuts to the bone.Nigel has toured Australia, New Zealand, the US, UK and Canada and he’s had a huge past 12 months... in 2023 alone he toured the US three times, the UK twice and played a bunch of festivals including MerleFest (USA), AmericanaFest (USA), Cambridge Folk Festival (UK), Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion (USA), Mile of Music (USA) and Old Settler’s Music Festival (USA). 2024 has seen a UK winter tour and Official Showcases at UK Americana Music Week and Your Roots Are Showing (Ireland).
