On Arvos with Andy, we had Darwin-based musician Charlie Prowling from The Black Pepper Band. Charlie joined us to talk about the band’s latest release, My Precious Time. A heartfelt favourite from their live shows, the track is featured on the recently released Darwin Sessions, a 21-song audio and video collection that captures the band’s unmistakable energy and authenticity in a live setting.
Recorded and mastered by Ward Hancock, with video production by Leigh Bramell, My Precious Time captures The Black Pepper Band doing what they do best: turning lived experience into melodic, emotionally charged, live-band magic.
Blending country storytelling with rock influences, the collection reflects years of performing together and highlights why the band has earned a reputation as one of the Australian country-rock scene’s most genuine and hard-working acts. Charlie shares the story behind My Precious Time, the making of Darwin Sessions, and what continues to inspire the band as they take their music to audiences across the NT.
