Austin Church is a unique singer​/​songwriter. His songs are written with depth, an unorthodox turn of phrase, and a touch of whimsy. An otherworldly wit is often injected into the fabric of the tunes. A great deal of his work is bolstered by an underpinning of hope. When the “Churchman” is doing his thing, he hopes to enthuse and inspire. Austin is a straight forward player, relying on his rhythm guitar work to hold things together, and let his message bound along into your heart. After his studies at the University of Georgia in Athens, Ga., Austin became a regular performer at Athens’ folk and blues club “The Last Resort”. It was there that he met and became inspired by the likes of Townes Van Zandt, Gamble Rogers, and Jimmy Buffett. In fact, Austin co-wrote “Brand New Country Star” with Jimmy during one of Buffett’s stays at the “Resort”. Austin went on to spend twenty years in Nashville honing his craft, with cuts by artists including Del Reeves and Lyle Lovett. Austin has six albums to his credit: “Dreamin’ Backwards” (2000), “Propitious Mélange” (2008), “In The Blue Ago” (2010), “Walkin’ In Outa Leavin’ “ (2012), “Kill Devil Sessions – Flight of Aaron Jett” (2017), and “Retrophonic Folk-A-Delic” (2019). He would love to perform a concert for you. If you want to get off the beaten path, roll with the “Churchman”, no tellin’ where he’ll take ya.
