LATEST NEWS
I'm very happy to announce the forthcoming release of my new CD of 14 original songs called
THE FURTHER I TRAVEL.
Rouseabout Records have signed me to their label and I feel very honoured to be included in their roster of artists alongside two of my favourite Australian songwriters, Gary Shearston and Eric Bogle. The CD will be released via Undercover Music later in February.
Thanks once again to Chloe and Jason Roweth for their talented musical input and to Susannah for her impressive design. Stay tuned!

I live in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales, Australia and have done so for thirty years.
From childhood I have maintained a deep interest in, and love of, Australian history. I have written books and articles, and developed school learning materials on Australian themes.
My interest in Australia has also been expressed in many of the songs I have written. My song writing has been combined with many and varied performing opportunities.
I have performed at restaurants, concerts and festivals and my music has been played on ABC radio. Each year I continue to enjoy the opportunities of travelling to Australian places and listening to, and documenting, the stories of the people who live there.
This website contains a growing collection of articles, songs, reviews etc that I have written over the years. You can access them via the links above. Please feel free to email me as I value your comments.
regards.
Jim
