about

These are songs recorded live at various venues between 1999 and 2017. Thanks to all the sound engineers at these venues that valiantly and expertly captured my songs on various recording devices. Note, though, that these are live recordings made on various devices at different venues and with different mixing setups so some tracks might have artefacts. And then there are the performance“artefacts”!

The first ten songs are just me and my guitar. The last two songs were recorded at the thirtieth birthday show for the Songwriters, Composers And Lyricists Association (SCALA) at the Wheatsheaf Hotel, Thebarton, South Australia in 2017. On that night I was backed by "the SongCatchers", Adrian Miller and Clayton Werner, who co-present the award winning SongCatcher program on Radio Adelaide 101.5FM. I was actually recovering from an Upper Respiratory Tract Infection on the night so my voice is grittier here than on the previous tracks.
