"Songwriting has been, and continues to be, an outlet which enables me to express my observations, feelings and experiences.  For me, personally, there is no formula to writing a song.  Some songs take a relatively small amount of time to write – others can take many years until they reach a point where I feel they are complete. Without exception, the inspiration comes at times when I do not feel under pressure to write.  The process of writing and recording my thoughts is, at times, therapeutic; at other times, such as in the case of ‘War’, it leaves me deeply challenged by the emotions it provokes”.
Since 2001, almost 30,000 Australian men and women from our Australian Defence Force served in Afghanistan. During the 12 years spent in Afghanistan-( Australia's longest ever War ), 41 Australian soldiers were killed and hundreds were seriously wounded. Many of the soldiers returned safely on home soil but lost the battle with the demons that followed them home. The number of serving and former soldiers who have taken their own lives is now more than 12 times Australia's combat toll in Afghanistan. There are hundreds if not thousands who will carry permanent Physical and Mental illness with them for the rest of their lives. "Lest We Forget" them our Modern Day Veterans and their families also on Anzac Day. 'War' is a song that came from meeting Afghanistan war veteran Beau Rutledge who served in Afghanistan 2008. I hope it goes a little way towards paying my respects to the men and women of our Australian Defence Force and to all our Modern Day Veterans. " LEST WE FORGET "
