As for Archer, if you want to listen to music that touches your soul and takes you back to a time where there were no fences, fewer cars on the road and more beauty in your surroundings, you have to listen to Archer.
Potato and garlic farmer by day, singer-songwriter everywhere else in between, his voice will take you on a journey back to the 1950s and even further than that, with an appreciation of the flora and fauna that rural and outback Australia has to offer.
First exposed to music as a young child, the gentle voiced sing-song man and writer says he continues performing music because he's hoping his music will inspire or create something special for people's souls.
To see these two amazing people together will be sensational.
