Patchy Rain & 20
Another week, another several million cups of tea! I’ve been loving apple and cinnamon lately!
This last week has been pretty dynamic! The early week saw lots of practice, a new song! And a bit of business stuff! I’m determined to not let the business side of things get in the way of my practice time too much though. So far so good!
On Thursday I played for a hundred or so people...

25 & Sunshine
So I didn’t get a chance to write a new diary entry on Friday at Gone AWOL because rather than drinking coffee and listening to music there, I was the music:D I played for about 2hrs, and sold a couple of CDs!
Last week a friend of mine who works in JB HiFi offered to put up some posters around the music section of the store, which was super cool! So I made some posters and took them in,...
20 & Fine
Last week has been a powerhouse of music! Well maybe not so much a powerhouse as more of a small nuclear generator. Wednesday was the highlight of the week for me! I played with Tane who was down in Hobart as part of a tour, alongside several other acts throughout the evening. We each had about 40mins to perform. I was up first, and the responses I received all night were really encouraging!
The...
15 and Overcast
I can’t believe it’s been a week already! Here I am again sitting in Gone Awol, possibly my new Friday lunchtime tradition! And speaking of traditions, I’m playing at my old school fair tomorrow for 20mins, before spending the rest of the day at a Kung Fu workshop!
I’ve been working on a song for the Australia’s Got Talent auditions, which are only a few weeks away...

Summer Like Saturn
A week ago I played at Gone Awol, a local coffee shop, which does live music each Friday! I’m sitting here again, this time listening to a songwriter by the name of Dominic, picking some sweet folk pop tunes!
Last night I played a support set for Mike, an exceptional Melbourne blues guitarist. The room was small, but the vibe was big! I’ve only really been playing live for two months...
September, October, November
Hey! The last few days have been pretty chocked full of music goodness! Thursday I played during lunch at a Vineyard, which i now think will be a permanent thing:D later that night i checked out a new venue i will be playing at this coming thursday, and the very talented performer i’ll be supporting beforehand!
On Friday night I played at an acoustic music night! It was the first time it...
Sundays
So last night I played for the first time at The Lark Distillery! I played alongside several other acts, all of which were top notch! We each had a 30min spot; so short and sharp! The atmosphere was really nice, as my mate said it felt like a lounge room, which I think really captured the vibe!
Today I played at church, which went really well! It was a patchwork music team, but things went...
Coffee and Cake
So today started out like most others, with an hour of guitar practice. I then went to post a couple of albums to some radio stations who had asked if i’d send them a copy for them to play, so that’s pretty cool! I made my way down to a vineyard where I played for a few hours over lunch. While I was there I was asked if I’d play on an ABC breakfast radio program, so I said yes to...
Cupcakes
Today I had a meeting with some lovely people who organise the live music for a number of venues in my city’s waterfront area. I have a trial in the coming weeks, and if all goes well I’ll have a busy schedule! I do need to buy a PA system though, which I thought I would have to for a while now; it’s a tool of the trade really! It will motivate me to get gigs to pay it off!
