Owen Campbell is a 28-year old Australian slide guitarist/singer/songwriter who got his break as the runner up on Australia’s Got Talent. In 2011, Campbell released his self-produced debut Sunshine Road which hit #1 on the blues charts in Australia, New Zealand, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. The Pilgrim, Campbell’s second album, was produced by Mark Opitz (AC/DC, INXS) and is set for a June 7 release.
Owen Campbell has been playing guitar since he was 9 years old and is one of Australia’s most talented slide guitar players and songwriters, with his gravelly blend of blues, roots, soul and country, with a voice that belies his young age.
Along with his unflinching ability to sing it sweet and play it dirty, he creates a perfect blend of melody that’s simple but right, as is the way with the blues…
