First of all thanks for watching, and to my new followers, i’ll try and make this worth your while.

TOWARDS THE end of 2009 I penned a series of posts celebrating a decade of musical journeys to date. Over ten days I posted a song each day chronicling most of the bands I’ve played in NO MATTER HOW EMBARRASSING time and tastes may have made them seem. Unbeknown to me at the time, years later this would spawn a very small trend of people I know who are in the same boat, most notably Michael Job and Luke Smith, fellow stalwarts of the Brisbane music scene, to talk about their own cumulative experiences playing music. Check ‘em out.

NOW, 2 YEARS ON I plan to continue this series with an update as I have been very busy in the meantime and have had a part in loads of material. Look out for the new tracks over the coming days to see what I’ve been up to. But for now, for those of you who are new to my forum, I’ve provided a recap of those old posts below so you can see where I’ve come from and get up to speed. Thanks for listening!!

Took a day off last week to do nothing but jam with my house mates and record music. It felt like the sun shining on my soul.

Found myself sifting through mountains of photos tonight. You know how some photos hit you in the chest like a punch because of the memories they bring back? This is one of those. If it wasn’t 12:30am I’d probably tell you why. But it’s late and I’m tired. Maybe another time.
