This song was a little harder to write than the first two and the video took so many more days to come together but I love this song and am so happy there was a piano and an organ out at Possum Park Miles Qld that I could use during the month. I think it's one of my favourite songs I have ever written.
Massive thanks to David and Julie for letting me do my thing at Possum Park this month.
I'm not really sure where this song came from, but there have been many conversations over the last year or so with strangers, fans and also people close to me which have made me realise more and more that every single person goes through some pretty rough times at different stages in our lives.
I don't know anyone who hasn't been through horribly low moments at some point and felt completely lost and alone and found it impossible to find a way forward.
This song is for all of us who have been there and for anyone who is there right now. In the middle of the storm, find the strength to carry on and come on home.

i’ve been staying out at Possum Park Miles Qld this month. it’s a pretty unique place that i’ve been visiting since i was a kid. you can sleep in underground bunkers, train carriages, cabins or bring a caravan or tent.
i picked up some postcards from resident artist Chris Osborne Art and i thought i’d send a few out to anyone who wants a card from me in the mail. just send a little email with your address to [email protected] and i’ll choose a few to send out before i leave australia.
ps the new song from this month is almost ready to share, i’ll try have it online before midnight on the last day of march

This month I am staying in a very unique location in rural Queensland. It has been one of my favourite places since I was a kid and I've always loved coming back here. Here are a couple of songs from outside and inside the bunker.

Sometimes I get high on life or love and I disappear into some kind of emotional Xanadu for a while. I love these seasons. Where everything is possible. And anything can happen. And then, for whatever reason, it’s gone. It’s hard to come down from that high place. I’m still working on it. 
This new demo is a sad one. But it’s beautiful. (I promise to write at least one happy song this year…)
Here is February’s song with random footage taken at and around High Place Cottage in Tasmania.

sunrise over maria island in the distance. i've spent so many hours staring out at this view thinking about love and loss and people that have come and gone over the years, all tangled up in this mysterious life.

S O L I T U D E • Postcard from Whare Kohu • Misty Morning (demo) • January • New Zealand • 🇳🇿
This has been my home for January 2024. Kohu Cottage is nestled in along the Whanganui River in New Zealand’s North Island. There is no phone connection or internet, just the surrounding peace and quiet and the opportunity to completely disconnect from the outside world.
Kohu means mist in Māori. Kohu was also the name of the original owner, you can glimpse a photo of her above the fireplace in the video.
I spent the days reading books, playing guitar, walking along the river road and soaking up the hum of nature around me. This video is my little postcard from Kohu Cottage and the soundtrack is the song I wrote while I stayed here. It is just a little demo version for now but someday it will be recorded properly and released everywhere.
If you ever want to stay in this cute little Cottage in New Zealand, you can email Lois for bookings - [email protected]. Lois is one of the most beautiful souls I ever met and she has always welcomed me with open arms.

i have spent the last weeks hiding away in this little cottage in new zealand. no phone connection. no wifi. just me and the sheep and cows and horses and deer and goats and birds and bees and trees and the mighty whanganui river.
i have written a new song and i really like it. i have also recorded a little demo version and made a little video with random footage from this month of solitude. it’s an incredible (and very nerve-racking) feeling to have done all of this on my own and have no idea if it’s any good or not but to try and keep trusting myself and share it with the world before the end of january.
i’m putting the finishing touches on the song and the video today and i’ll upload it and share it before midnight on the thirty-first (new zealand time).
