PHILL RAYMOND Australian Singer/Songwriter/Guitarist
His CD releases and live performance include original songs and selected covers of songs by music artists that have influenced him throughout his career. Drawing upon a pool of professional musicians to accompany him he offers everything from acoustic blues solo/duo, a trio or quartet expanded out to a 7 piece lineup depending upon the occasion.
The music is essentially drawn from blues and blues derivatives with songs from various forms of music that Phill has played, performed and been influenced by over the years. ie: Blues, Blues Rock, Rhythm & Blues and contemporary acoustic music styles.
The latest CD offering Phill Raymond - Lovin' Every Day of These Blues leans toward 50's style blues, a couple of flying boogies and a hint of Bossa Nova ballad. Six songs all up with 5 originals and a cover of the Lonnie Mack song STOP.
