About Nigel Wearne:

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.

Nigel has played some of the world’s most prestigious music festivals, including Hardly Strictly Bluegrass, MerleFest, Philadelphia Folk Festival, 30A Songwriters Festival, Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion, and the Cambridge Folk Festival (UK).

His sophomore album, ‘Black Crow’ garnered wide critical acclaim including a 4-STAR review in Rolling Stone, a nomination for Best Country Album at the Music Victoria Awards and it debuted at #1 on Australia’s AMRAP Charts. His 2023 album, ‘The Reckoning’ received back-to-back nominations for Best Blues Work at the 2023 & 2024 Music Victoria Awards and a 4-STAR review in The Australian. 2025 marked a return to his roots as a folk songwriter with his latest album, ‘The Lone Reckoning’. A raw, emotive, stripped-back rendition of his 2023 award-nominated album ‘The Reckoning’.

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.
