/ CHRIS GILLESPIE & CAMERON JAMES HENDERSON /
Chris Gillespie is an independent artist from the Blue Mountains, NSW. His songs are beautiful, bursting with observational yearning. "A fingerpickin', harmonica playing troubadour ...Sydney’s answer to Bob Dylan (Dave Regos – FBi Radio)." Gillespie is renowned by his audience and peers for his songwriting craft, especially his lyrics. This music is very Australian, highly original and delivered with refreshing honesty and integrity.
Cameron James Henderson, also known as CJ Stranger when his band is present, demonstrates an unexpected command over lyricism, exploring stream-of-consciousness imagery in songs like ‘Strange One’ contrasted with deep narrative maturity in folk ballad ‘Fool’s Gold’. All delivered with an understated voice backed by expertly crafted arrangements leading to inevitable comparisons with Wilco, Kurt Vile, Paul Kelly and The Church.
Together, this duo takes each other's songs and lots of classics and reinterprets these personal stories with a blues and folk edge.
