Sinner’s Shrine and desert dreams Sinner’s Shrine (El Tiradito) in Tucson Arizona, serves as the inspiration for the title of Dean Owens new album. Its history runs through the album, a sinner who died for love, and prayers of the heartbroken, the dispossessed. The deserts of America have long held a place in Dean’s heart andContinue reading “Dean Owens ‘Sinner’s Shrine’ emerges from the desert sands with intoxicating appeal”

Monique Brumby’s talent bears fruit again with new single ‘Tom Deliver’
The opening bars to ‘Tom Deliver’ sound like a dirge, a funeral procession mourning the death of inspiration. The music and the vocal are slow and leaden like it’s an effort to even crawl out of bed. It’s a sensation familiar to every artist at some point in their creative life, and captured so wellContinue reading “Monique Brumby’s talent bears fruit again with new single ‘Tom Deliver’”

Always take the weather with you…
I’ve had a blog on climate change in my head for some time…having spent the summer watching Australia burn and then flood, watching the aftermath of this on my fellow country men, women and children. But – what to write and, when? I sat on this topic for a while for several reasons. I found it hard toContinue reading “Always take the weather with you…”
Turning on the light…
I have deadlines looming…mostly to a self-imposed timeline so I can easily ignore them. But they gnaw at my mind …I want to keep the promises I made to myself and will feel like a failure if I don’t. We all have days when we can’t be arsed, and our motivation is lacking – youContinue reading “Turning on the light…”
It’s a Wrap – January 2020
Hello there music lovers, time for my monthly wrap up of what’s been happening around the traps, or more specifically… what I have been up to during January 2020.

Forays Into the Mystic
As promised in my last blog, I’ve shaken off the procrastination vibes, and offer up an old story that’s been hanging around for quite a while.
