Hi there, I'm a singer/songwriter from NZ who recently left the beautiful beaches and warm smiles of Aotearoa behind; time to experience a bit of life's offerings outside of the long white cloud.
I spent 2007 soaking up the vast cultural differences of South Korea, and sharing my music with the eager locals, fun times!
Some of the songs on here I recorded during a music degree in Hamilton, NZ, came out the other side of it with a sketchy EP titled "Spend". The others have been recorded on the road with my lappy and Mbox.
Now based in Melbourne Australia, I'm booking shows and trying to get an album made.
During my stay in Korea I discovered SELLABAND(watch the vid below). This snazzy new initiative has been referred to as "The new music revolution" and it's aim is simple- get unsigned artists into a top studio with top industry professionals.
I would be stoked no end if you could show me your support by checking out the sellaband link below, and if you like what you hear, maybe become a part of my journey too-I HAVE OVER $11,500 SUPPORT SO FAR!!....click on the banner below to find out more about it.
Drop me a line if you're in a band and want to do some shows together, are a venue/festival looking for some sound acoustic music, are in Melbs and keen for a jam, or if you're just looking for another myspace friend...thanks for dropping by.
Thanks mate. All is good here. Just working hard. The CD will be out at the end of the month. I got to meet GD and his wonderful family in Sydney, that was very special! If you come to Sydney PLEASE look me up! Have a great weekend! Brian :)

I just voted for you on the sellaband competition website. Got me to thinking. Ever heard of last fm? It's an online radio station where you can put in the name of an artist you like and it will play a song by them and then music similar to it, and gives you bios of every artist they are playing. Anybody can upload their music to the station, as long as they own the rights to it. I entered you into their search engine, and although your music isn't on the site, they were able to play music similar to your's. Thought it might be something you would be interested in. It's great publicity!
hi kane. sorry i dont check myspace much! you posted me like a month ago. im good for now. im teaching in korea still till august! going back to england for a week in feb tho :-) how are you guys doing then? whens the big day? use facebook... i check that all the time!
