Immediacy and Charisma

' ......he has an immediacy and charisma that draws you close to the music and I cannot think of any other solo artist that I've heard in the last couple of years who demands your attention in the same way. He makes music that I want to listen to'

- Alan Pearce Editor, Blues Matters

Using slide guitar, harp, and stompbox to create his unique sound which is both exciting and real.

Babajack

Founder member and co-songwriter of the successful band 'Babajack' brought him to the forefront of the British Blues scene where he has been nominated numerous times for Best Harmonica Player along with Best Album and Song in the British Blues Awards.

Even the name ' Babajack ' has an amazingly powerful story behind it, in the early '90s, Trevor was in Zimbabwe. Living and working with the Shona people in Mashonaland East. During this time Trevor's first son, Jack was born. According to Shona custom, the father takes his son's name, so from that day forward, Trevor was known as 'Babajack': The father of Jack.   

Raised on listening to his mother, a club singer in the sixties and the only two records in his parents' record collection, Johnny Cash and Rory Gallagher, his musical journey began. In the late seventies, he started out by playing bass in a number of local punk bands. he cites Sonny Boy Williamson as an influence, add in travels across Europe and Africa and you have enough material to write a great book never mind an epic debut solo album like this.​

Spectacular performer and songwriter

' Sawdust Man ' is a revelation, a hybrid of all Trevor's early influences and experiences, they say you have to live the blues to be able to perform it with authenticity, well, this man has an amazing amount of experiences to draw from and he proves what a spectacular performer and songwriter he is.
