What's it all about!

After the releases of ’Trains & Churches’ (2018) and ’The Stranger’ (2020) I want to bring you a different album. An album not just based on the blues, like the last two, but rather an album based on stories , observations and songwriting. Observations and contradictions seen through the lense of the backstreets of Vienna to the late nights of busking in Brisbane. Stories of travelling through India chasing a love to recounting the memories of old Camden town in London. So come and join me on this musical adventure!

What makes this project special!

After 4 years since my last album it is fantastic to get the whole band back in the studio to record again.. Marlene Lacherstofer on bass and Ivo Thomman on drums hold down the groove as only they can. Ryan Thomas Carpenter came in to lay down some piano and organ which is always a special moment . And last but not least Melodi Begum came in to add the icing on the cake with her beautiful backing vocals!Overall it all adds up to be a special moment captured In time and place

This is what I need backing for.

With your help I can make this project come alive!.. the funds from this campaign will go towards paying for the recording sessions and further making it possible to press vinyls and CDs from these amazing sessions. . It will also allow me to bring you merch such as t-shirts. Your contributions no matter how big or small are greatly appreciated in making this project come to fruition!
