Dubbed the Jimi Hendrix of the Hammond Organ and Whammy Clav, Lachy Doley is the most celebrated Blues/Soul/Rock Organ player in the world today. Consequently, he is also one of the most in-demand and hardest working musicians you’ll find. Alongside powerhouse drummer Jackie Barnes and Joel Burton on bass, The Lachy Doley Group are a super energetic, soul/blues force that perform as if their lives depend on it. Not only has Lachy Doley established himself and the group as an incredible live act at home, but the guys make regular trips to Europe and Canada where their star shines bright too.
Lachy has just released a fabulous, brand new album titled A World Worth Fighting For, featuring the great Bootsy Collins on one track (returning the favour for Lachy playing on his latest solo album Funk Not Fight) and is currently in Europe again playing to his ever-growing fanbase.
Australian Musician editor Greg Phillips sat down with Lachy Doley at soundcheck before his Brunswick Ballroom show recently for a chat as our July Musician of the Month. As always Jason Rosewarne took some gorgeous photos and assisted with the filming.
