One night I went into my living room and picked up the guitar and ad-libbed these four songs. It was about 1:00am and I thought I would just see what I came up with at the time. So, the recordings are a bit rough, but when I listened back to them in the days following, I found them to be telling a story and I thought I would share that with anyone who wanted to listen. 

Look Inside Of Me

Home Movies is a collection of demos I completed over the Christmas of 2024 with my family. I was trying a lot of new things with the instruments I have. What is here are some of those songs I felt where special and that I found myself coming back to listen to. It was one of those things, I felt like I captured something in the demo and couldn’t do it again. I think that the songs themselves have a feeling of amnesia to them, it’s like something you might partially remember or even music that you heard but it wasn’t exactly being played for you. So, I hope that whoever takes the time to listen takes something from them and that would be good thing.

Mary Of The Street

Fall Into Me

I have been writing a story for a long and in this story, I imagine a young man who found a hidden place in a desert after leaving his hometown. After walking on a lost highway road for some time he sees lights over the expanse. Being inquisitive about it, he heads towards them and that’s where he finds this place and so begins to live his life out there with these oddly nomadic suburbanites. I don’t know everything about what happens to him yet or why he’s there, but I feel like he might be losing his mind. I wrote these songs based on him, to try and capture that lost suburban town with its, green lawns, picket fences and clean streets. I hope you like them. 

He Don't Mind Fate

Grocery Store

She Knows Me

We Go Far

Most of the free time I have is spent sitting down In my bedroom with my guitar or piano and writing songs and trying to get something out of it all. So, in short, I sit down and record songs, some of them are mostly there and finished others are just ideas, and sometimes the session just works all together to make something I like. So, I will be going through my sessions and releasing them to anyone who wants to listen. I hope whoever those people are they enjoy them for what they are, because they are real, music made in a family home with all the sounds that go with it.

Only for the Young

I have a 1920's Thalberg Pianola; it had been doing the rounds in my city for the past 100 years. A lady decided she wanted to give it away and I took it. At about this time I was writing a lot of songs based on the things that I was experiencing and so I started trying to play them using this pianola. Mostly I think that one day I'm going to lose all these Demos I've done and forget everything. Which isn’t always right So, I want to try and keep a record of them for what’s it worth. It is just me and the piano and the ideas that I had at the time so they’re honest like that so, here they are for anyone to listen. 

Whisper in the Trees

Highway Mary

Session 030, more tracks of mine that I have found going through the sessions, mostly on the Casio here but a few on the guitar as well. I haven’t added anything to them really so again they’re pretty raw. 

Town Hymns

Mary Of The Street (Alternative Version)

David

Sleep

Night Out

I travel a little for work, sometimes to these far away towns where there isn’t to many people. I feel that it’s strange to be in places you don’t know alone and for me it makes my mind wander. Which isn’t something that I want to happen, so I decided that I wanted to use these places to develop songs and try make something good out of the loneliness of it all. 

The North Stations is a compilation of songs that I made trying to tell the story of where I was and what those towns where to me. So, I began carting my guitar, harmonicas and my recording equipment around with me to these stations and went from there. 

I can say that the conditions I made these songs or any of my music really has not been ideal for recording. Still its apart of what makes the songs connected to me and the outback of Australia. I hope you find enjoyment in them. 

Coming Home

Laura's Theme

Just Over The Hills

Knife Fight

The Lord

More tracks / demos of mine that I have found going through my previous sessions. It’s mostly on the Casio, but a few on the guitar as well and a little harmonica. There’s not much to it just one take of each of the songs and I worked with what I had after that.
