about

Some Reviews:

"Awesome" - Nick Spinks
"Y85 is the best song, the guitar solo is epic ... well not epic but well suited" - Josh Orken
"They are fabulous" - Asher
"The one about his scooter - and Megan on facebook.... its pretty funny!!!" - Georgie
"I have noticed many of the songs are over 1 minute and one goes for 1.21. False advertising." - Dan Hurt

This album was recorded on an electric guitar with dodgy pick-ups and five strings, two acoustic guitars, a two octave keyboard, a harmonica I learnt to play in ten minutes and a bass I borrowed for a couple of days that turned into six months. I recorded 100+ minute long songs
from August ‘10 to February ‘11- this album is a collection of the best 30 of those minute songs. I know what you are thinking, if these songs are the best, how bad were some of the ones he left out … let me tell you, bad!

One minute is enough time for the path of anyone’s life to change direction forever … I just thought it was a good length for a pop song.
