In 2011, Achison made Truefire’s “100+ Gifted Guitarists You Should Know” list and was named ‘Official Patron’ of the Melbourne Blues Appreciation Society. He lives in Melbourne, Australia and continues to record and tour regularly.

Martin Anderson, Music Director for WNCW radio in Spindale, N.C. says, “Achison’s 2009 album One Ticket, One Ride was the No. 1 pick among WNCW Blues fans. We enjoy having him and Bramblett stop by for live sessions here on a regular basis.” Achison, Steele and Hendershot will be live on WNCW at 4 pm on Friday, Sept. 6.
