About Me


In Between The Odds & Evens EP
Goes on sale @ Urbanscapes 2008!
Interviewed on The Weekend Sessions!
i sometimes wish i had a gruff-ier voice. less airy-fairy serenading, i want a set of gaz coombes pipes along with a wicked pair of sideburns that would make a granny wet.
i want to win the lottery so i can quit my job to become a full-time troubador/upmarket gigolo that only services international supermodels and celebrities. but since that's not gonna happen, i'll settle for whatever ego masturbatory adulation i can get on myspace.
my sole aim is to produce works that would make a person (even one would do) seethe with jealousy for not having thought about it themselves. cos i have a lot of moments like that. and i hate that i hadn't thought of it first.
self-penned write-ups are quite a bitch to compose.
"sorrow drifts into your heart thru a pinhole
just like a faucet that leaks and there is comfort in the sound
but while you debate half empty or half full
it slowly rises, your love is gonna drown"
