An instrumental track that was inspired one day when I was in some wild weather at Port Arthur, south of Hobart, Tasmania.

Heavy Weather (To be completed)

An instrumental track that was inspired by Reason when I first got it, version 6 I think... anyway I am now hooked :-)

Renewal

An instrumental track that was inspired by; well the name says it all...

Sunshine Over Misty Waters (To be completed)

A funny little tune that came from a dream about a great big slug that crawled into existence from a tropical hot mud pool. The title is just to provide a tag for the song and may change as may the music. Enjoy...

From Out Of The Slime (Draft)

The Widest Ocean – >>T>W<O<< 
(a.k.a. Gregory A Lawson – Singer/Songwriter) 
   
A few years ago I was lucky enough to be on a sightseeing boat that took me from the south of Tasmania, (my original home), to the edge of the Great Southern Ocean. With nothing but beautiful blue-green sea all around and as far as the eye could see I was deeply moved. 

So under the unlikely name of “The Widest Ocean”, (>>T>W<O<<), I compose and record music that I hope is in step with the times but which also provides a purposeful departure from, and distinct alternative to, todays mainstream music.
  
My journey began as a singer, fronting a number of bands in both Tasmania and Victoria, Australia, however, the progression to composing and the expression of an original style was inevitable. 

So I have been following my passion for composing and recording music for many years, exploring various styles and genres, but ultimately gravitating toward a minimalistic style emphasising, when employed, simple poetic lyrics. My songs explore a range of emotional shades; light and dark; positive and negative, and offer differing views of happiness and sadness, love and loss. I find these opposing emotions intriguing and attempt to convey these emotional shades through my music.

I wish for you, the listener, to enjoy and find connection/meaning with my music.
