Give us a little bio about you.
I’m an Australian singer/songwriter and who puts life lessons/perceptions/ experiences into music.

My parents gave me a toy guitar when I was three and I haven’t looked back (thanks mum and dad).

Kings Of Convenience, Jose Gonzalez, City and Colour, Gregory Alan Isakov, Iron and Wine, Nick Drake
Are you signed?
Yes with the Berlin based label ‘Greywood Records’.
You released your new latest Single ‘Those Words You Don’t Mean’, tell us more about the single and the meaning behind the song.
The song is a reminder to not let ambition blur/taint the truly important things in life (family, friends, community, how you feel). You can say some strange things and act in certain ways you’re not proud of when you’re putting too much pressure on yourself.
Describe the track in two words.
Thought Provoking.
What was the writing and recording process like?
It was generally quite smooth. The song was written on the couch in 2021 and was one of those that came out very quickly (usually a sign it’s a keeper). Fast forward to 2024 and collaborating with my friend and audio/music wizard Pastel Jungle, we put together the production + mix in a few days. Hot Tip: Tape emulation plug ins are your friend!
Who did you work with on the single?
Pastel Jungle helped me immensely bring it too life sonically and than obviously Heiko at Greywood Records has helped spread the word!
Will we see an EP or Album if so, what can we expect from it and the meaning behind it.
The album is coming and you can expect all the different shades of my musical palette + some solid stories.
Do you have any live shows coming up?
Not touring at the moment.
What else can we expect in 2024?
A lot of new songs being released!
Where do you see yourself now in 5 Years?
In a relatively similar place/day to day flow but improving my studio space with some quality outboard gear!
What quote or saying do you always stick by?
Success is defined by how you perceive it.
When you are at a gig, what are 5 things you cannot forget?
Capo, a warm beverage, lyrics, how to sing, my guitar
