What a legend! Guitarist Adam Jones from Tool.
I took Eli and his best mate to a free signing at @mannysmusiconline this afternoon.
He spent ages chatting with everyone too. Amazing.

10 years ago today I released a little EP called ‘Caffeine Heart’. ☕️❤️
I take a quick look back at the amazing artwork by @tape_modern , the writing, the recording, the meaning behind the songs and remixes by (Furry Friend) @robertdenbury .
Super proud of making this record.
It was 5yrs in the making, recording parts between 2010 and 2015.
Would love to know if you have heard any of the songs or if you even have the CD.

That time of the year where we share our Spotify Wrapped for 2024.
It still amazes me that people are still listening to my tunes even though it’s been nearly 10yrs since the Caffeine Heart release.
Thanks for all the spins and really appreciate all the support with my music. More to come in 2025. 🙌🏻

Pretty crazy to discover one of my songs ‘Roads’, was being used by an American dance group for their National competitions across the States. 🤯

Credit to @heartsoledance for their performance and @jennybuck56 for the amazing choreography. 🔥

The song on Spotify has over 274k streams now.
They must have practiced and listened to that song A LOT.

Here’s a cover of @dermotkennedy ’s Two Hearts.
This song has been in my head for a while. As is the case with songs that hit me hard, I can’t seem to move on from them until I record a cover of it.

🎸🎙️ Do you have musical talent kept hidden from your work colleagues? 🎸🎙️
⭐️ Join me for the inaugural “LinkedIn - Open Mic” event, an opportunity to shine a spotlight on the musical talents within our community that might have been waiting for the right moment to emerge (or reemerge).
🎹 Dust off your guitar, uncover that old keyboard, and record yourself performing a song, whether it’s an original composition or a cover. Then, come be a part of our first episode.
🙌🏻 All levels of talent welcome, it’s more about giving it a go!
🎥 You don’t need fancy equipment; a simple iPhone video will do just fine. I’ll take care of mastering the audio for all submissions, ensuring they sound their best.
📺 The show will premiere live on YouTube (in 4K), where your friends, family, and colleagues can cheer you on from the comfort of their homes and show their support in the live chat. Stay tuned for more details and dates.
🎤 During the COVID lockdowns of 2020 to 2021, I hosted nearly a dozen virtual Open Mic events for my previous workplace. We found that music played a vital role in keeping us connected and boosting our mental well-being, especially during the challenging Melbourne lockdowns.
If it brought us together during lockdowns, why not continue the tradition?
Ready to get involved?
✅ Record a video of yourself performing an original or cover (16:9 ratio).
✅ Upload the video to a cloud storage platform (Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.).
✅ Connect with me on LinkedIn (link in bio) and send me a direct message with the link to download.
✅ Stay tuned for updates on the premiere and YouTube link.
Let’s keep the spirit of connection and wellness alive through music.
How long do I have to get a song ready?
👉🏻 Premiere will be some time in July. Dates and times to follow.

Note: I will upscale any lower res videos submitted to 4K. If you can change the video settings on your phone to 4K before filming, will definitely help the quality.
