About this listen

In this episode, we’re just talkin’ blues with Melbourne-based harmonica player and frontman Phil Coyne. It’s a down-to-earth and lively chat as Phil takes us through his blues journey — from early influences to leading The Wayward Aces. We dive into the band’s evolution, their songwriting process, and the stories (and laughs) behind their tracks, including the fan-favourite “Summertime Blues.”

Phil opens up about recording their debut album, blending personal experience with a touch of humour, and how that shapes their sound. We also touch on the deeper role blues plays in community, connection, and resilience — especially through the challenges of the COVID era.

This one’s full of insight, heart, and plenty of bluesy soul.
