My latest single, Burnt, is a song about hurt and loss, but rising above and writing a new story from the resources within. You can purchase my new album here or download and listen via bandcamp here.
Burnt is not only about hurt and loss. It is also about rising above and writing a new story from the resources within.

This song is dedicated to those who have arrived on the shores of Australia fleeing from unimaginable hardship and persecution. It is also for their families and friends and for those yet to come. It is written on behalf of those whose hearts cry 'welcome', and to those who relentlessly fight for human rights in Australia.

Come to the Table was released in 2009.
It is a collection of things seen, heard, felt and imagined. The table is a place where hearts meet amongst the pain and joy of human existence. There is laughing and crying and stories shared.
