2. Joel Harrison (Australia)

In a time where young artists are manufactured to suit radio airplay and mainstream profits, genuine songwriters are becoming a rare breed. Joel Harrison, a 27 year old singer/songwriter/vocal coach from regional Australia is an artist who blends a vast range of influences into a style all of his own. During his musical upbringing he performed in a plethora of Theatre productions, Cabaret shows and Pub/Club/Bar gigs which he views as “a great way to find influences and dissect popular songs that people love”. He has also performed internationally and supported many of his musical influences and top Australian acts. His debut independent and self-funded album titled “Thinking Over, Over Thinking“ received critical praise and consisted of 13 original tracks all written by the young singer songwriter. Currently Joel is working on new material which he has dubbed as “POFOCO”; a blend of Pop, Folk and Country styles.
