After many years in 'retirement' as a singer I have finally decided to bring one last big musical project to life. My 'Magnum Opus'. An album of songs and musical passages, some written by myself and others from songwriters whom I know and love their works.

The music I am creating will be a musical 'journey' through the many varied sonic experiences of my life on this Planet. A journey through Folk, Classical, Rock, Blues and World music.

The songs and music have already been created and are at 'demo' stage. I am trying to get myself the space and time to write lots more. By donating you will help me make this album become a reality. In many ways YOU will become a part of the creative purpose of making it manifest. It is a huge work that will involve many people and their talents.

Can you help me to do this? I simply can't afford to do it without your help.

The work I do in this beautiful little studio brings in very little money that isn't spent on keeping equipment and software bought and maintained, electricity and rent.

It' is not really a 'business' rather more it is my own space for creating that I use the create my own and other peoples projects at pretty well cost. This last couple of years we have produced several beautiful music albums and EP's and some great video productions

The last 15 years since Tribe World Ensemble's album "The Message Stick" I have dedicated almost every waking moment to recording fine music and sound for others. It is time for me to focus on writing and singing the songs that are deep within my soul.

I have asked a whole bunch of musicians to contribute to this album. People who I have worked with over the years mainly.

It will become another "Tribe Gathering" of players and artists from all over the Planet. Some of the very best players I have ever known are independant and making their own music and I want to have them play a part in this album to feature their amazing talents.

What I am able to offer in return for your help:

For musicians who are able to come to Canberra and can afford a donation of $1000 I will give you two basic acoustic/ guitar vocals songs produced, recorded mixed and mastered here with me for your own project plus an Honorary Executive Producer title on the release notes and on any printed cover art.

That will represent 10 hours of my time with you. 4 hours will be spent recording the balance will be on mixing and Mastering the tracks. For more in-depth details about this one please connect with me on Facebook or by email.

For music creators outside of Canberra or from interstate/overseas who can afford a donation of $1000 I am offering to mix and master 2 songs to final master stage. plus an Honorary Executive Producer title on the release notes and on any printed cover art.

This will represent 10 hours of my time.

If you can make a donation of $200 I will list you in the credits as an Associate Producer. This is the credit given in the film industry to thank those who contribute financially to a project being funded.

For donations of $100 I will send you a signed copy of the finished CD with a credit for your support on the art and a enlarged cover art photo.

For smaller donations I will list you on the CD credits and give you a free download link to the CD
