Glenn Skuthorpe Band - Acoustic Guitarist / Vocalist - Adelaide, South Australia Event Location: Burketown QLD Event Type: Festival 14th March 2018
‘Glenn Skuthorpe’s music sings this country. When I hear his words and hear what he has to say, it’s this country singing back to us. I’ve never heard anyone articulate our struggle and our stories better than this man. it’s not just the man there, it’s the spirits that come out of this country, it’s the essence of what we are and it’s the essence of what it is to be an Australian person, if you want to be a real Australian come and stain yourself with the blood of us and our people, because this man, he sings it - his songs mean something.’

‘Skuthorpe is a songwriter who allows his songs to suggest their musical context… he presents an almost Van Morrison rocker in ‘See My World’, a swaggering folk-rock ‘Nothing To Give’; the Cajun, accordion-driven Mellancampesque ‘Small Change’; a dash of country waltz in ‘Frozen River’ and some driving shuffle meets TexMex in ‘Boat On The Wild Ocean’… delivered with understated, sometimes foreboding passion…and some great, unshakeable melodies.’

‘See My World a fittingly accomplished, fourteen-track-long distillation of Skuthorpe's considerable talents and innate connection to the sounds and expanses of this broad, burnt land. As a Nhunggabarra, Kooma, Muruwari man, Skuthorpe's ties to Australia and Australiana run deeper than most, and his evocative compositions come polished off with a sincere reverence for the styles of the '60s and '70s that lends his work a broader timelessness and accessibility that is extraordinarily difficult to deny.’
