All dates have been confirmed for our Australian tour starting in a couple of weeks. All your favourite band members will be joining me for a final tip of the hat to the last album ‘I Will Love You at All.’ After this I’ll be taking these songs to other parts of the globe before disappearing to some secluded cabin/cave to work on the next album or whatever. Shelley, Cory, Marky, Steph and I sincerely hope to see you.

Just been added to one of my favourite music festivals in the world!
End of the Road 2011 takes place in Larmer Tree Gardens, Dorset (the land of Thomas Hardy). Heaps of great bands plus a multi-coloured 70’s disco dance-floor in the middle of the forest. I’m guessing we’ll fill in other UK dates around that time too.
anyway, have a look and see what you think…

If you’re from overseas just say you live in Queensland. (It’s the pointy state in case they ask.)
The song in the running is ‘All These Things.’

You also need to confirm when they sent you an email after voting. Yes, I know you’re not stupid.

The music video for my song All These things is in for a chance in this years RAGE top 50 clips of the year. It’s yet another lofi masterpiece by my good friend Natalie Van Den Dungen. It stars Melbourne dancer Heidi Barrett (miming to the vocals of Shelley Short) and myself and believe it or not I’m not a dancer.

We got #8! thanks neighbours!

Minutes after sending my last mailout we were informed that the show planned in London on the 8th Dec falls on the same day as an Arsenal game nearby so therefore the pub will be overrun by people probably not wanting to here intimate folk songs. The show will be moved now to the next night on Thursday the 9th December. Sorry about the confusion. Tickets below:
