"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!
Hello Neil. Forgive the little spamette but I'm just trying to get the word out that my new album is now available! It's been a long haul but I'm very proud of how it sounds.
Hello Sir Neil, I hope you and yours are doing well. It has been quite a while but I just wanted to drop by and say hi... Great new music... experimenting with new styles? more tele stuff? Pretty neat Sir...
Looking forward to talk to you sometime soon my friend.
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.

Mate, you're in fine form with the new track. It's got that great Jiguma "feel". The electric guitar parts are fantastic. And as always, clever lyrics. Great work.
Hey Neil,
Yes... it's done :) Here's just a kind invitation to discover my very first album 'waiting again' on my website. Thanks so much, and love from brussels,

Hallo Neil, nach dem Winter kommt der Frühling ! Ich hoffe dir und deiner Familie geht es gut. Ich habe ein Video für Ex Static gemacht. Es ist auf meiner Seite. Liebe Grüße aus Germany.Tan
It's so much fun to see your friends and see so many of my own in there, too. (I hadn't seen Joe's new photo. I think he may have eaten something he shouldn't have). It's just great to see a face and say, "Hey, it's Walter. There's Nolan next to Cat and David and Bing and Steve and so on..." It just brings it home that we're a real community all swimming around together.
