In the shadows, where the silence breathes,
A whisper echoes, pulling at the leaves,
Every memory, like a ghost returns,
Burning bright, as the emotion churns.

This tide of emotion rolls, in like a storm,
Wash away the remnants, of a love once so warm.
Every tear that I taste, every scar that I hold,
Cuts deeper with the knife, with every lie that has been told.

Time is a river, flowing out of my hands,
Each moment slipping, like fine grains of sand.
With every heartbeat, the darkness it brews,
Pulling me deeper, with nothing to lose.

Oh, this tide of emotion rolls, in like a storm,
Wash over the remnants, of a love once so warm.
Every tear that I taste, every scar that I hold,
Is a story unfulfilled been told, a truth that's been told.

Drifting in shadows, where memories lie,
Veils of whispers, like ghosts in the sky.
Echoes of laughter, fade with the night,
Caught in the currents, I'm lost in the fight.

Drifting in shadows, where memories lie,
Veils of whispers, like ghosts in the sky.
Echoes of laughter, fade with the night,
Caught in the currents, I'm lost in the fight.

Tide Of Emotion

Independent Artist / Guitarist / Music Producer.

After picking up my first six string at fourteen years of age, it was soon apparent to me that this was an instrument of fascination and vast expression. I vividly remember watching live musicians at a young impressionable age, being blown away by what I had just seen, and have had a love for the instrument and music, ever since. My love for the guitar, and trade background also led to working with some of Adelaide's top guitar luthiers, restoring, and refinishing new and vintage guitars. I have also finished and customised my personal guitars and amps over the years.

My musical journey has led me through such experiences as cofounding a hard rock cover band, spanning almost a decade playing Adelaide’s pub scene, as well as some great parties, corporate and community events.
There have been numerous original bands in the genre of metal, punk rock, soft rock, folk, to acoustic duo. 

While with these bands, I’ve been fortunate to have been included in the production of four EP’s, some memorable musical moments, countless live performances. Including Adelaide Fringe Festival, and Adelaide Guitar Festival.

Over the years, I have established a recording studio, and undertaken some of the recording, mixing and mastering duties for the bands I have been involved with. I have also continued to pursue my own solo music.

Through this process, I have been fortunate to have collaborated with some very talented Australian, UK and American artists, which has furthered my songwriting and musical journey.
I enjoy the continual learning process of collaboration, as well as pursuing my solo music.

What happens when you teach a kid Suzuki violin, have him grow up in the home of a rock band, and then give him a guitar and get out of his way?

Throw in a love for Dave Brubeck and odd time signatures, some Phil Keaggy and open guitar tunings, a little Klayton and Trent Reznor, a touch of Adrian Belew, a dash of Danny Elfman and Alan Silvestri, and then stir in a heaping helping of big dumb guitar rock, and you’ve got a mishmash of influences that make up my sound. 

I like to make interesting music, and I get bored easily. I am equal parts composer and performer. I sing a little. I play a lot. And I really dig making absurd beats in weird time signatures that don’t make any sense until they do.

Making music with guitars and fretted instruments, never bound by genre.
