◎Bathed in Black◎Kim Churchill◎
幼い頃からアコースティック・ギターを手にし、ジェフ・ラングやジョン・バトラー、ザビエル・ラッドといった本国オーストラリアのヒーロー達に影響を受けながらめきめきと才能を開花させてきた彼。18の時には大手ギター弦メーカーのD’Addarioのコンテストで優勝、Cole Clarkと合わせてスポンサーを獲得し、一躍注目の存在に。豪州最大音楽フェスの一つ、Bluesfestでもオーディションで選ばれる枠を見事勝ち取り、数多くの偉大なミュージシャンを育ててきた主催者を唸らせる。
Kim Churchill is an experimental acoustic guitarist focussing his playing around folk an blues music. His style is immediately unique and used percussive beats on the body of the guitar, two handed tapping and many methods he has created himself.
His style lays on a bedrock of over 10 years of classical training and 14 years of experience. At just 19 years, Kim’s music speaks beyond his years. His original compositions reflect his love for the ocean and his drive and energy.
Kim’s live show consists of guitar, grinding blues harmonica, stomp box, tambourine and heartfelt vocals. Kim has spent much of the last year touring the east coast and draws from his many years of experience busking.
He has already had an immense impact on the Australian music scene, playing blistering shows at Byron Blues festival, The National Folk Festival, Greenfest, Woodford Folk Festival, Narooma Blues festival and many more. in April 2009, Kim won the Busking over Byron competition, and was named national Youth Folk Artist of the Year 2009.
Kim recently made his television debut playing on The Grand Final Edition Footy show on Channel 9. Kim has played with artists such as Jeff Lang, Ash Grunwald, Dallas Frasca, Lloyd Spiegel, and Marshal and the Fro, and has appeared on the bill alongside acts like Xavier Rudd, Ben Harper, Michael Franti and John Butler. Kim has just released his debut album ‘With Sword and Shield’.
