Bio
Music has always been a part of my life. I bashed out my first tunes way back in 1972 at the tender age of three on a two-piece drum set given to me by my parents on my birthday. Growing up in a musical family was always challenging, while other kids were playing footy I was performing on stage in our family band as the drummer while sharing lead and back up vocals with my bass guitarist mother. Before I was sixteen I would have performed around four hundred gigs at various clubs and venues around Queensland.
I gigged for another five years in numerous rock bands learning to play the guitar along the way. I quickly discovered I had a natural talent for lyrics and songwriting and spent most of my time writing for whatever band I was in at the time.
With a repertoire of about fifty songs on paper and a limited budget I began studying sound engineering and computer programming and started to set up a small home studio while gigging with my wife in a very successful duo on the Gold Coast. At thirty-five I decided to write for my five-year-old son Joelan.
The album “Magpies And Witchetty Grubs “ highlights Australia’s unique culture and quickly received interest from labels in Sydney. I continue to write many rock and country songs but I have decided to push this children’s album for I believe there is a need to capture our youth with music that sparks imagination and spread our honest and down to earth way of life to children across the globe.
