"Jiguma" is the local Aboriginal name for where I live on the "Deep South Coast" of New South Wales overlooking the Pacific Ocean - well, the Tasman Sea to be precise. My music is mainly guitar based (Seagull "S6+ CW Cedar GT QII", 1970 Maton FG150 12 string, Fender 1971 Precision Bass and my new Telecaster) with harmony vocals, but I occasionally mess about with an old Yamaha PSR300 MIDI keyboard as well. I have a stash of flutes, recorders, harmonicas and tin whistles, but they don't get out much! .. .. ....Guitar MySpace Layouts.. - ..General MySpace Layouts.... ....Guitar MySpace Layouts.... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .................. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..

    " Greetings from Australia!  

     I don't use these comments much, but thought now may be the time to start.   I've been nominated as one of the MSI "Artist of the Year - 2011" finalists, and, as with all of these things these days, it has come down to a vote.  I am currently running second by just 33 votes, and I'd really like to sneak past the current leaders and take the award out.   

     The song being voted for is "Spinnin'" with John Libby (aka "ktb").  You can hear it here: http://www.reverbnation.com/artist/artist_songs/41572#

    on the 23rd of July, we went down the road to Pirate Studios, we recorded 6 tracks live (just guitars, vocals & drums). We have put up 2 of these shinning little gems, The Blues Ain't My Cuppa Tea & Brother Where Out Thou, both we recorded by Dave Sparks & Ted.

    Download, Share, Spread The Word & most of all enjoy the tunes.

    Cheers,

    DOAC.
