about

Long before the days of Phnom Penh Driving School and the like, in 1987, at the age of 20, I recorded and released a self-financed cassette (!) of 12 original songs, under the ill-advised title Myself. A sort of wistful juvenilia, if you will - this sort of folky pop wasn't so fashionable in the late 80s. Especially in Hobart, Tasmania. But I sold a few back in the day, and (F)friends may remember this fondly. This album was unavailable for many years before being revived on Soundcloud, and is now available in a digital format for the first time.
