Today begins a week of celebrating all things TURQUOISE ahead of the release of my first full-length album on Monday June 13!!! Join me on Good Morning Country radio every morning this week (June 6-10) as I chat with Kevin Walsh about this long-awaited musical project, how it finally came together and where – and […]
Despite the highs and lows of the last couple of years, I feel like my songwriting has been truly blessed. In fact, music has been officially saving me since January 2020. In the past two years, I’ve released three number one debut singles on iTunes (Some Loving Left To Do, Stop Time With A Kiss […]
I’m thrilled to be releasing my first full length album, TURQUOISE, on June 13 and, as everyone who even vaguely knows me knows well … it’s my favorite colour!!! My niece, who adores the title, fails to understand why I didn’t think of doing this earlier (she might have a point) but I honestly believe […]
Never has a hug been so precious to me … and never have my senses been so heightened by the simple things in nature – sunshine, wind, rain, moonlight. And yet, one of the most startling things about this pandemic is the way in which a weird kind of war has been declared on human […]
I’m thinking of a pandemically-inspired career change – something practical and useful. It’s those crazy millennials. While I’ve been running around hyperventilating over whether I can get my new video done or not, my nephews and nieces have been working away on the frontline, stacking shelves and manning tills at Coles and Woolies, keeping the […]
I feel so lucky to have been nominated twice in the prestigious Hollywood Music in Media Awards (HMMA) – in 2018 for the winning lyrics to my song Stephen Hawking Wants You To and this year (2019) for The Heart You Break The Hardest is Your Own. I was so delighted when I won last […]
Armfuls of “Peace”… sometimes I think roses are the most glorious artworks of all. These were photographed a week ago at Tesselear’s bulb farm in Victoria while I was working on one of my latest tracks at Barb and Adie Hannan’s The Songstore, just around the corner on their own beautiful rose-filled property not far […]
With each passing year, Halloween becomes more and more special for me. Of course, it’s my own personal new year’s eve – my birthday falls tomorrow on November 1 – but as the psyche of the world splits and moves away from organised religion – or collapses back into it again with a warlike vengeance – I mark October 31 in my own mind as a spiritual festival, a global celebration of the release of darkness in preparation for the dawn of a beautiful new light on All Saints Day.
There’s a goddess in every mother and my son Jack has certainly brought it out in me. I’m so proud of him. He’s fifteen years old, half boy/half boat – and he’s the real reason I live in what I like to call Lighthouse Country (Scotland Island in Sydney’s Pittwater) in one of the most […]
With Stephen Hawking all the rage at the moment, I’m feeling more than timely publishing the lyrics to Stephen Hawking Wants You To, a song I released two weeks ago as part of my new EP Incandescence. Just today, the man at the centre of The Theory of Everything, an upcoming feature film focussing on […]
