After honing his skills busking the city streets of Melbourne, Carter turned his attention to writing, recording and playing his own brand of folk and country blues to venues and festivals across Victoria. His one man band live show with acoustic guitar, foot drums and harmonica goes from soaring slide guitar and blues hollers to folk song ballads.

His reinterpretation of old time country blues aims to pay tribute to iconic bluesman of a bygone era such as Skip James, Fred Mcdowell and Robert Johnson, as well as providing a swag of original folk songs.

Funk McRump (Owen Miller) has been spinning the funky discs around Melbourne town for around 3 years. Over time his collection has expanded in heavy funk, dirty disco, sultry soul, boogie boogie, amazing afro-beat, smooth hip-hop and sensual jazz.

He has played trumpet from an early age and played with acts such as Foreign Brothers, Dub Princess, Copperhead Brass Band, The Beegles, Chicken Wishbone, Mon Shelford Band and many more.
