Gorman taking centre stage for their August 25 show.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Gorman, 27, joins fellow local artist Bec Goring on the program and said he was looking forward to returning to Anglesea, a town he spent time in growing up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI grew up in Torquay, but my best mate Stu from King Gizzard grew up in Anglesea, so I spent a lot of time there. I love playing gigs in old halls, that\u2019s going to be really fun- I like the vibe,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI love performing, it\u2019s a really nice interaction to have with people, I love going to gigs as well. Music is my passion, so it makes sense that I like doing it &#8211; it\u2019s thrilling, fun and exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With a self-described laid back \u201860s inspired sound with a \u201cbluesy rock and roll\u201d fusion, Gorman said his music has a strong lyrical presence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve got a bit more of a lyrical twist, I love artists like Bob Dylan, Lou Reed and JJ Cale, all of those type of bands and music inspires me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know you\u2019ve written a good song when it just comes to you. They\u2019re usually the good ones, the ones you don\u2019t have to toil over.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI get inspired to write all the time, driving, in bed. Inspiration doesn\u2019t wait for you to sit down at a desk, it\u2019s up to you to catch it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gorman said after touring the world he took a break and returned to his profession as a carpenter and earnt some money whilst recording his latest album Easy Dazy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t really go on hiatus as such I was still doing gigs here and there I just wasn\u2019t doing massive tours. I\u2019ve always been a comfortable performer in any sphere or place or country, performing is natural for me,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve toured America and the UK three times. I\u2019ve always had a really good time playing in Glasgow, Scotland. I love the city and the people, it\u2019s a great crowd.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gorman said he was \u201cstoked\u201d to have a record out and be going on tour again, getting out there again and performing back on the Surf Coast.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m really looking forward to the Anglesea show and having Bec Goring for support. I feel like as an artist my sound continues to change and evolve. I try and make each song I write better than the last.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI started playing gigs as a 15-year-old around Geelong so the music I play now is a lot different. I feel like most artists change their sound many times and that\u2019s kind of half the fun.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Sound Doctor presents an evening with Fraser A.
