Nerds&MusicNerds and Music is a folk-parody duo from Newcastle NSW.

Composed of Clark Gormley and Wayne Thompson, the Nerds paired up in late 2007 and are building a following through their comedic performances around Newcastle's beer gardens, street fairs and Folk Clubs in the area.

Clark plays bass and harmonica, while Wayne plays guitar and occasional kazoo.

The Nerds' style could best be described as folk-comedy. Performing entirely original songs, Nerds and Music aim to reveal the semiotic truths behind everyday existence by forensically dissecting subjects such as mowing the lawn, mumbling and the colour brown.

Clark brings to the duo a reputation for witty poetry and songwriting, a legacy of his long courtship with the written word. Wayne is a more recent resident in the world of songwriting, and brings his 'less is more' sensibility to the duo's musical arrangements.

Both like to deliver satire coated in pleasing vocal harmonies.
