  • Bio

    "With the seemingly incongruous notion that you can meld grandeur and honesty, from Out Of The Loop comes Mr.Percival. As a testament to this bizarre notion, night after night at last year’s Woodford Folk Festival, Mr.Percival commanded standing ovations in celebration of an artist who must and will be in the hall of honour. A Capella, performance artist, sleight of hand. Call it what you wish, because he does defy pigeonholing, but one thing is for sure, Mr.Percival, with a voice created by angels, is a festival of talent in his own right." – Jane Burridge "Occasionally you hear something that breaks a few rules - that's nice, that's exciting .... but what Mr.Percival does is so free, so purely musical, that rules don't even apply enough to be broken. This is music straight from the heart." – James Morrison "Mr.Percival is a unique act. The things he does by himself on record as well as live I can't even begin to think about without being very confused. He is a great singer who has come up with a completely new way of presenting his songs and his spirit to the world . I for one am a fan and wait with anticipation to see what he will come up with next." – Jimmy Barnes "Ah! Mr Percival - is what I'd describe as a walking, talking musical instrument. A man who never ceases to amaze me with his gift , humor and generosity... And he is as unique as Australia itself. Love, light and melody. Ah! Melody..." – Marcia Hines "Listening to the insanely beautiful vocal stylings of Mr.Percival can change the beat of my heart, it's that moving. See him live or hear any of his tracks and you too will become entranced. It's like he is the Piper and we are the rats." – Julia Morris "Mr.Percival's voice is a remarkable instrument which exposes his soulful heart" – Vince Jones “Mr.Percival is art for the ears” – Ken Done

    The crowd, they jumped

    Love your looping work. I want to upgrade my loop pedal, to record more loops through one song.  I have a jam man.  Any recommendations?  Hopefully I can make your show tonight in  Melbourne.  Have fun!

    I was made aware of you thru the video you did with Bobby Mcferrin.  He is my all time favorite but I must tell you, you rocked that song..you sang with so much soul.  I cant tell you how many times I have played it and told others about it.  Just wanted to write as i listened to your version of "High & Dry".. I play the one Jamie Cullum did on repeat...  I do LOVE your version and will most likely listen to it over and over again... Great work.. YOu're a true artist
