Songwriters Showcase ...

Just got back from Toowoomba after a lovely weekend centred around the Songwriters Showcase, which was held at the Cafe Guitar on Saturday afternoon.  Nine participating songwriters were on the whiteboard including the organiser, Peter Campbell.  I played "Breathe, Miss Sunshine" and "The Decision" (not yet released). I chose the second song based on the Country flavour of the event, as that song has an Australian Country Feel.  I was surprised how nervous I was, playing my own tunes, but I got through the performance with minimal chords misplaced and notes flattened. I collected another facebook friend and there was some positive feedback. Overall it was a successful first outing.  Most likely my next adventure will be the online Trimstone event in just over two weeks. I have been advised they would like four songs (if I pick the two short songs I played them), which sounds good to me.  I have no plans to go further with live performances. There are a few open mic

December wrap-up!

So much happened this year, it's hard to keep track of everything.  The last couple of months blurred together a bit, so you might have noticed there was no monthly update since October.   There were a couple of open mics at new-to-me venues in November.  Brewski in Brisane and a cafe in Tin Can Bay.  In total, I performed at 42 open mic events through the year. That tally included several visits to The Triffid (owned by former Powderfinger bassist, John Collins), the Tin Can Bay café and a morning busking stint at Byron Bay.  “My main motivation for attending open mic events is to get reactions to how I’m performing - as well as responses to the songs themselves”.  Although this year’s focus was on performing, another two songs were released. “Christmas Morning” came out in late November and “The Sun Sets” in late December. "Christmas Morning" received airplay in Shepparton, soon after release! Stevie T from Radio Logan played other tracks a few times during his Songwrit

New Year, new songs!

I released "The Sun Sets" on 31 December and then "You Draw Blood" on January 21. "The Sun Sets" has been played on 5 Triple Z in South Australia and both songs have been receiving airplay on Brisbane's 4ZZZ. A great start to the New Year!  "You Draw Blood" has been performed regularly in open mics around Brisbane, since about June. I also played it my Live and Local spot at Banshees in October. Every performance has created strong positive reactions from all sorts of crowds, so I decided to enter the song into the ASA Songwriting Contest 2023 (along with "She Calls Me Back - The Mountain" and "No Place to Go").  Let's see what happens. Stevie T from Radio Logan played "Burn" the other Monday night.  The man has good taste - that song was a finalist in the 2020 ASA Contest!
