Live Jam Session with Errnest Aines

Ernest Aines joined Dinah & Sarah in the Local Roots studio for this week’s Jam Session.

Each week we bring in an independent artist to perform and share their music live in the studio just for you.  

A Melbourne based singer/songwriter with an affinity for story-telling, Ernest has been song-writing, performing for events and weddings, playing at festivals, played solo and with bands, in big venues and small, from Federation Square to street corners.  He has supported such luminaries as Deborah Conway, Tex Perkins and Ross Wilson.  He has been on the bill at festivals including Folk Rhythm and Life, St. Kilda Festival, Westernport Festival and Apollo Bay Festival.  He took out first place in the Apollo Bay Young Songwriter Competition, in the top four finalist in the International Songwriting Competition and a finalist in the Melbourne Songwriting Competition.

Ernest paints a vivid tapestry with his deep understanding of refined lyricism, with influences that roam various folk styles. His finger-picking style and soothing voice engage the audience in his melodies, understated yet complex. The sounds disengage the listeners defences and deliver hidden messages straight to their soul.
