ARIA AWARDS: 4
Single Of The Year, Best Male Artist, Best Independent Release, Best Cover Art, 2005 “The thing most people don’t realise about artists is that behind the perceived glamour, we are a truly blue-collar industry built on craft. So generally, any recognition means that you will probably get to keep going a little while longer. For most musicians, when we win something we are thinking: ‘Alright! That buys me another five years in this line of work!’ We all just want to keep going.”
