Stewart Barton

Mark Gable of the Choirboys put it this way: "Stewie has already made it, the world needs to find him as well." Stewart Barton grew up in Canberra determined to play guitar, taught himself first, then sharpened up through programs for emerging Indigenous artists in the ACT and a Keith Urban online course. Local talent shows came next, then an open mic night in Queanbeyan that opened doors. The influences are country and rock: Urban, INXS, Brooks & Dunn, Springsteen, Bryan Adams, Luke Combs. He plays his own songs alongside the classic party covers. Book him solo for something close and personal, or as a full band for a country rock show. He can supply sound and lighting, and he holds public liability cover.
