Wilson Blackley

Born in regional Victoria’s hilly South Gippsland, Wilson Blackley’s musical journey started at an early age, picking up his first pair of drumsticks at just two years old. He was raised on his mother’s record collection, absorbing a large variety of genres. Wilson’s songs tow the line between love and pain, provoking his audience’s imaginations, and reinventing the spaces in which he performs. He describes his music as, “Not too happy but also not too sad. It’s a constant push and pull between the two that I feel gives me that ‘modern-yet-not’ sound.”
