Description: With a timeless feel, it explores the nature of the great mythical maggi, Merlin. Is there a man in the magician, more than magic to the man?

Lincoln Man depicts the everyday life of a homeless man who frequents Lincoln Park in Carlton, Australia. The lyric, 'Saturday's Age' refers to the Saturday edition of The Age daily newspaper. When I wrote this song, the newspaper was in broadsheet form and often used by homeless people as a blanket.

It celebrates a gentle love over many years.

Vals Languido

Vals Lánguido

Beautifully sung by Kora C Jacques, this ballad is a gentle plea by one lover to another to share their dreams.

Hey Dreamer

It celebrates living in the present and enjoying what that offers.

Five Four Fun

'Mir' means Peace in Russian and Ukranian.

With a timeless feel, it explores the nature of the great mythical maggi, Merlin. Is there a man in the magician, more than magic to the man?

The 'dust' in this song is the collection of memories gathered over the years, including unrealised dreams and wishes.

The Dust That’s Gone

LA VILLA MARRAKIFF

in carreggiata

A quiet, reflective song about what superstars might do in their personal lives and what their life partners might prefer to be.

The Way You Are

Over the years, I have written many songs and instrumentals. These have included co-writing 3 musicals for the stage and a few songs that have sold. However, my first love is writing quiet, unassuming songs that evoke reflective thoughts and feelings. Although I write to please myself, I also tend to write with more capable performers in mind, especially in the hope of attracting accomplished musicians to record covers.

Being an ‘old-school’ writer and yet a lover of the latest push, I almost always find myself writing music that can be played acoustically. I suppose this comes from my classical piano training as a child, my exposure to jazz, and my progression to brass instruments and the acoustic guitar. I hope that you enjoy my music and that it serves its purpose of transporting you to another, more reflective world.
