Baby Boy Baby Boy
A brutally sweet account of the ecstasy and agony of becoming a parent to a baby boy. Mums Be Warned - you might cry!
The Generals The Generals
Broken Broken
This song is my protest song for peace! We are all born in our own skins and are all the same, yet so different (but I still don't get how people vote for John Howard or Dubya)

I write and play what I hear in my head (some people say you are crazy if you hear things in your head!) I am not perfect or outrageously talented but I try to make the best music I can. If something I have written makes you feel something then I feel that I am a successful music artist!
I cannot be bothered writing a heap of hype. Suck it and see!Band/artist history
I taught myself to play little brown jug on my dad's ukelele when I was 10. I started singing and writing songs because I loved doing it even though it seemed that everyone thought I sucked at it, hard work always pays off and its been a long time since anyone covered their ears when I sing! I've played in a couple of bands - one of which is called Tane who are a Celtic fusion band. I played solo shows of covers in the National Hotel in Fremantle and then started performing and recording my own material when I met Terry Brogan who enouraged me to listen to my own muse. Then I met Latis and he helped me record the music you can hear on this site. I am recording some more stuff at the moment at the studio of my friend Peter Lane but progress is slow because I have two little children and time for music is scarce - but that's ok with me! I'm currently living in Ireland and collaborating with Gene Crosby (piano).Have you performed in front of an audience?Sometimes - not much at the moment as I have dos ninos pequenos. I love to play live as I am a complete attention seeker!

Maybe David Lunbeck has nothing to do with this? In any case its a beautiful song
This song is beautiful. Sounds like Davids keys and guitar licks. Love your vocals. Is this a collaboration between you two. In any case great track.
