“I live with OCD and I am on the ADHD spectrum, which is the inspiration behind this song. A deep dive into my favourite pop/punk albums from my youth inspired me to revisit this and make it into the song I always knew it could be. This is about anxiety and exposure treatment; how it is a challenge and that in time it will get better and will be OK. I hope you enjoy this anthem” 

feeling hope again. 

It’s burning up the tinder box
Weigh on my brain like broken rocks 
I want you to leave by the front door
Instead I’m letting you put your feet under the table
I’m having drinks with a monster 
And it’s never closing time 
The whispers in my brain transmit like the loudest din and the rumours are always lies 

I’m living moment to moment
It’s hard
It’s hard 
It’s hard
It’s hard
Letting you in
Not figuring you out
Brain volumes on 10 
I’m feeling hope again 

This trapeze I’m jumping off
Down to my feet and staying put
Keeping you here on my terms
Brains on fire my mind burns
Over there I put you out 
Down by the water into a cloud
Of smoke you go to live another day 
Now hold you dear, friend and enemy

feeling hope again.

“I was inspired by indie pop for this song, which is about moving on, getting back to yourself and reflecting on how far you have come. Life is full of moments and when you are in them those moments might not be so great in hindsight or those terrible moments might be the best thing that ever happened; a complete turn in your life, the making of you. I took inspiration from “Down” by Blink-182 for the chorus. This came together quickly, one of those exciting projects that flows. Thank you for listening.” 

did that even happen?

Have you forgotten about me? 
I kept my heart running while my soul was off its feet and down on its knees
I was praying for rain to set me free 
So set me free from this unease
It’s something that I just can’t believe 

Did that even happen? 
Does the time gone by make sense of it all or is your hell still a fire? 

Do you remember those times?
We felt love deep inside then the waves came crashing
Did that even happen?

A fire, a rebel and a ghost making hell a reality, now history  
A feature in a magazine, a home grown heart burning machine 
Remember to never forget me 

Was it a tall story? 
Fictional history? 
A thing of make believe? 
Was I so naive? 
Was it pain or love?
Did that really happen to me?

“A love song inspired by my wife. Musically I have leaned into my love of 90’s US radio Rock and had Goo Goo Dolls ‘Dizzy Up The Girl’ in mind. This song came together when the guitar riff landed and once I was hooked on the guitar line this song took me along and it was a joy to produce. Lyrically it is about being in love and appreciating how amazing your partner is and how much they give to you. Thank you.” 

You are good to me.

Keeping the peace in my heart
Making me feel so good
Opening up my world 
I’m feeling so understood
Are you my imagination?
You’re definitely a dream
You’re light in the dark
When the darkness gets too real 

You are good to me
All I’ve ever wanted and need 
Yeah, you make me fall in love again, again, again 

You’re making me so nervous
I’m in a dizzy state
This future here, so perfect 
Always worth every moment of the wait
Keeping me wide eyed
So incredible, unique
Never ever been so breathless
I’ve lost my words to speak

"Inspired by the idea of a road trip and young destructive love. I wanted to hear the excitement of the wheels down the open road and the dust cloud left behind - part chaos and rebellion; part serenity and possibility. This is a coming of age song full of optimism and potential.”

beautiful thunderous. 

All I want to get is your affection
I'm not sure I can get your attention right now, right now
You take me all the places I want to go
You make me grin when I see your hair grown out and I like that

Our love is thunderous
Our love is thunderous
It's wonderful and wanderlust
It's beautiful and thunderous
Our love is wonderful, wanderlust, beautiful thunderous

"Pack your bags" you say, you need me
Take me there in the height of summer, let me burn
I'll burn for you
Get into my old black car now
We'll scream and shout and love our way down to the bright lights
I feel free now, free now

beautiful thunderous. (2025 REMIX)

“St. Anger is my favourite Metallica album. For this song I had so much fun being creative and leaning into the sound and spirit of that record. The lyrics are inspired by an experience I had following a caffeine detox; I accidentally ordered regular instead of decaf, which led to an afternoon of the shakes and shivers. st. caffeine = frantic.” 

st. caffeine = frantic. 

Adrenaline right to the heart
I’m circling the pain 
Sweating and blood rush
Attention electrified 
Meeting my match and feeling my pain 
An earthquake inside

A shot takes me
It makes me sick
A devils kiss from from this hit
(caffeine = frantic.)
A puncturing wound from the mud
Hanging on to its grip 
caffeine = frantic.

Holding it inside
I won’t go back again 
Caffeine intake
My shell here remains
Pollution
So toxic
A torture
A lesson from my mistake
This wrong order

“Inspired by the Bieber SWAG record I wanted to revisit this anthem about mental health and create a new version. Due to my musical taste I added further instrumentation to the raw modern lo fi sound to build up texture and harmonic interest.” 

everything. reimagined. 

Its been a long time coming 
I can say this for myself
I only want what’s mine
A simple peace of mind
A simple place of mine, my own 
my own

I will treat it like the last time
On my way to the finish line 
I'm taking back what is mine
I’m not settling this time

I can feel it in my heartbeat
Once again walking down this street
I'm letting go of everything
Living and letting go of everything

Its been a long time coming and I know
I can feel this in myself, in myself I feel it
Sometimes I want to explode
Sometimes I feel I’ll implode
I’m moving on here’s my everything 
All that I’ve got to give

“Taking inspiration from a footnote of an Oliver Sacks book, lyrically this explores the phenomenon of musical hallucinations. As I was piecing the lyrics together I quickly realised that in this “a brain storm” is a metaphor for a misunderstood, long term condition with varying degrees of ever changing intensity; Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome definitely inspired my lyric writing for this song (kindly follow the link to the HEDS society in my bio to learn more. Thank you). Leaning into the nostalgic live basement recording sounds of 1990’s alternative music there is definitely a Wheatus, Green Day, Third Eye Blind sound and it gets a little The Cure in places on this one. I also wanted the scrapbook sounds of “Save Rock and Roll” era Fall Out Boy. 

I revisited this as I wanted to cut a new vocal and when doing so I decided to explore a new mix - see what you think of this new version. Thank you.” 

mybrainstorm. 

I think I might be losing my mind
It’s definitely broken this time
Anxiety and fatigue, what’s happening to me? 
I’m losing my sleep
Brainstorming hallucination

This is my brainstorm
I’m feeling the downfall 
It’s taking, it wants it all 
(You give me the shakes) 
It pushes, it pulls me 
It knocks me then builds me 
Brainstorm hallucinations
I’m hearing ghosts and not seeing faces 
I’m hearing sounds in mysterious places 
My brainstorm 

I feel it call 
I’m hearing noises and there’s no one there at all
It’s so complicated, so bio-excavated 
Maybe I levitated to hell and back 
Brainstorm hallucination 

This is my brainstorm 
This is my brain

I love to include my Wife and Daughter in my Music to capture a beautiful moment; a personal time capsule. Music is an expressive outlet for me and I write from the heart.

Close to my heart is raising awareness of HYPER MOBILITY EHLERS-DANLOS SYNDROME. 

“Sometimes when you hear hoofbeats, it really is a zebra.”

No two zebras have identical stripes and no two people with Hyper Mobility Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome are identical. They have different symptoms, different types, and different experiences. 

Please see the link below for further information and awareness about Hyper Mobility Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome on the Ehlers-Danlos Society website.
