1.Your Profile
1960s folk, 1970s pop/rock. I love the outdoors, exercise, food and travel. In a fan, I look for anyone who likes my music.
2.Keeping Busy
Six months ago I returned from Nashville, Tennessee after living there for three years. One month ago I was back over in Nashville for a couple of songwriting sessions, a few guitar lessons with world-renowned guitar teacher Rob Jackson and hanging out enjoying the awesome music scene. Now I’m back in Australia, releasing the Lead My Heart EP, playing shows to support it and getting together my next batch of songs for a much more substantial album scheduled to be recorded and released later in the year.
3.Best Gig Ever
I can’t remember what year, but I performed a cover of ‘Throw Your Arms Around Me’ at the Australia Day celebrations in Darling Harbour, on a giant floating stage in front of 250,000 people.
