about

'The Reckoning' is an album of contrasts. Rollicking, rumbling, sneering, reflective. A full band explosion of songs, stories and musical mayhem; Gretsch electric guitar, horns, reeds, Hammond organ, drums and bass. All the while, Wearne's crooning, cutting, monolithic vocal keeps lyricism and poetry at the forefront. An enlivening experience that inhabits the after-dark realms of blues, jazz and soul; this is Americana-noir.

With thanks to....
Those who have helped me revive, strive and be alive at a most peculiar zeitgeist. Cat and the zoom songwriting group through lockdown, you got me writing again. Isaac for your willingness to share your knowledge and wisdom. Aurélien for digging deep and producing the most amazing arrangements. Bravo!! The band for being incredible artists and even better company. To Mum and Dad for your unwavering support. Amy for your eternal patience and passion. Your energy and intelligence wooes and wows me daily. To all those who have sung with me, conversed or given me a tasty morsel of knowledge to chew on. Music is my life force; helping me to filter and break down life’s cacophony. Take care good people and remember...

‘When you search in the right places / people are alright’

Sing On Songbird is dedicated to my friend Kate Gane. Sing on Kate...

Much love, Nige.

about

Nigel Wearne VIC, Australia

Nigel Wearne saunters after dark in the music of the night, blending blues, jazz and Americana-noir. Hailing from Gunditjmara country in South-West Victoria, he’s a guitarist and multi-instrumentalist with diverse influence from Nick Cave, Tom Waits and Rickie Lee Jones. A deep thinker and truth speaker, with a penchant for all things peculiar. Songwriting that cuts to the bone.
