The Adam Eckersley Band

Since their official debut at the 2013 Tamworth Country Music Festival, Adam Eckersley Band, have had a steep rise in popularity, firmly positioning themselves as the Australian band to watch.

To hear Adam Eckersley Band crunching through nimble rockers, fiddle-led stompers, reflective acoustic tunes and blistering country-rock, music lovers are reminded of the broad church that is known as country today. The musicianship, coupled with the gravelly emotive Eckersley vocals, makes clear why AEB is setting fire to the pews.

Having just won the 2015 Golden Guitar Award in January for New Artist of the Year, Eckersley also picked up a prestigious APRA Award for Country Work of the Year for his hit single "Give Her the World".

AEB has also been chosen for Commercial Radio Australia's coveted spot on the 2015 Global Artist Showcase for CMA Music Festival in Nashville in June. It seems industry and fans alike have come together re their mutual acclaim for Eckersley.

Eckersley's roots are, of course, impeccable. He writes what ZZ Top might call "beer-drinking, hell-raising," great music - learned from many years of touring both the US and Australia constantly.

The indisputable truth is this: Eckersley and his heavily bearded band of cohorts play and say what comes from their hearts and souls and as long as there s juice in the van and strings on the guitars, AEB will be playing somewhere and if you catch them, you'll be left cheering for more.
