In 2016 The Champs swept the boards at the inaugural UK Americana Awards, winning with Album, Artist and Song of the Year. Alongside Robin Bennett and Tony Poole (BWP) he released an album which bagged another UK Americana Awards ‘Artist of the Year’. His latest album, Another Place, has been again been voted Americana UK’s Album of the Year for 2021. This year another BWP album was released, followed by a one-off solo gig supporting Steve Earle in Paris.
