John Kerslake. Singer, songwriter from Sunshine Coast. Always been aware of the magical qualities of music and try to create the same.
It's just me at the moment. I've been writing and performing my own music for about twenty years now with increasing intensity. Sometimes I get lost in the cause in my lyrics, wishing I could get the message of love and peace across. Sometimes I just have fun with my songs. Sometimes I write and sing about the sadness we can experience but I always like to think there's a positive side to all in the end. I also like the attraction of fantasy and have written songs about Faeries, mermaids and even a sorcerer. I can immerse in fantasy but embed messages on life in there. Makes it fun to listen to as well.

Lyrics
A Perfect Excuse for a Life John Kerslake 22/2/2013 It’s a curious tale I’ll tell of a world built of buy and sell Is a man only worth what he has in his pockets There’s an eagle and owl that soar politicians and lawyers roar Is a man only worth what he has in his pockets Here’s a family of fifteen with a magical number three there are forty-five thoughts in my neighbourhood heart beat tonight I can’t see the words or the finger on the trigger squeezing the metal like lines from a page worry and fear the world kind of sags keeping the beat up and waving the flags seeing the damage and dreaming in rage Sunday morning and Sunday night Monday morning it came alright it’s a beautiful day a perfect excuse for a life it’s a beautiful day a perfect excuse for a life it’s a beautiful day a perfect excuse for a life
