Thingo
Just a musician who has played alongside many different folks over the years and I just wanted a place to put up some of the music I've made with them so I can pay my respects. To name a few....
John Rowell (for all the old school garage days that got me to the state I'm playing in today and for inspiring me to play original music. You'll always be a freaking guitar guru in my books. Those days are gone, but not the memories.
Russ Shordon (Bass on City Life and countless other songs. Legend on the Bass for the three Themes from Orchard volumes we made together over the years.)
Todd Mayhew (for being a righteous mate and brother and for letting me play leads on and recording your beautiful music. Another member of the Chemists and check out his mellow acoustic duo the April Maze.)
Steve Mayhew (Vox and Rhythm guitar on Happy Days and gracious member of the Chemists. Unfathomable depth of character and lyrical genius. A faith in my musical ability that keeps me well assured. I'll never cease to enjoy making music with you brother.)
Mark Bushnell (a noodling revolution. A guitar freak for all the right reasons. Teaching me the inherit value of scales and quick licks. If you ever need a lead guitarist, this guy shoudn't be overlooked. Here's to some of the moody blues we've pulled out together.)
Arlo Enemark (Providing numerous electronic soundscapes for me to noodle over since I met him. Stretching my finger-limits to new electronic horizons. A great sound engineer and a huge passion for music. Possibly one of the brightest sparks I've come across. See Smile on Impact).
Incredible respect for you guys, unsung heroes with beautiful souls that shine right through your music. I'm also the lead guitarist for The Chemists. 17 years of playing, jamming and travelling has brought me back to Australia to form our band. Come along and check us out sometime.
