I'm a singer/songwriter based in regional Australia - about 6 hours drive west from Sydney. I love writing and with not much else to do I've got plenty of time for music.
I've spent most of my time as a musician (20 or so years) as the primary songwriter for my bands. In the past couple of years I've started working with young songwriters in my area and found the process incredibly rewarding. I just want to write great songs and would love to help you do the same.
Formal education includes a music degree and courses in songwriting from Berklee
Informal? Years of singing and sweating on pub stages and incessantly editing in my home studio
