About Me

i am a solo singer/songwriter and i believe in what i like to call, the Global Sangha. a sangha being, put simply, a spiritual community, so to me the Global Sangha is all the people all over the world who give a damn about the state of the world, whether you want to do something about racism, war, poverty, starvation etc, etc, i consider you a part of the Global Sangha!i currently make a living as a busker at the City Cat terminal in Southbank, Brisbane, QLD Australia. i don't exactly make millions but what i love about it is that i get the opportunity to put a smile on as many faces as possible, which always puts one on mine! particularly kids, there's something pretty cool about a kid dancing with abandon that just makes me smile and truly enjoy my "job". i also appreciate the honesty of a busking session, it's a very raw performance and i love the interaction between me and my audience, without mic's and stages it allows people to approach me with there honest opinion.so i'm looking for constructive criticism and anyone who would like to jam!may your life be filled with beauty, happiness and good music!peace! stay cool! adz
