This Showcase highlights some of my more popular styles of song and some are slightly shorter than the original versions to keep it light. Feel free to browse and comment below on any of the songs.
Songs of Love
In To Your Arms
A song about the love of a girl and the love of Dancing |
Just a Love Song
A simple love song (if there is such a thing) |
Turn Around
Here's a person with a problem talking to the opposite sex |
Lullaby

Life Songs
Legacy
This song started life as a sea shanty/folk song written for a show that didn't get played, so I changed it to a regular style |
Luck
This song was written after a weekend stay with an author talking of life and stuff there in |
Absolutely
Again, this is a song of being content with life |
Punk
Jilted Party
Here's a new Jilted Party (Demo) track. I lost the original DAW for this song and I hadn't finish it. It isn't finished yet, but this is a re-start version, so far. |
Electro Blues and Regular Blues From the album 'Al and Me'
eBlooz
Relatively new song written with an old friend visiting old times |
Lazy Days
An old song from our duo days re-recorded and beefed up a little to go on our new album. |
Workshop Area
I'm being brave and putting some music here that is in the "working on" stage. I've recorded the basics but not added vocals or edited the mix to fit the verses and choruses. Feel free to comment. The titles are for working purposes only, they may be changed at any time.
Song Club Radio Hour
This is an internet weekly radio show based in Seattle for song writers. The idea is to write a song, record it and send it in by Friday. You get a week to put it all together and there's rules to follow. The title is set and you have a phrase to include in the song lyrics plus a couple of subjects to add in. This could be a sound or influence just to make it interesting. I joined in October 2022 and I am putting each song here as and when and if they get aired.
Given title: $23,600, Containing content: Triple Guitar, Use a kitchen appliance and use the words - "Mira, when you come back from Korea".
Aired 14th October 2022.

I have a very busy week, so this was a rush job. I decided to keep it as acoustic as I could, but I couldn't help myself a little bit. I also added the 6 string ukulele to give a little more lift.
This is the last show of the session, so we'll see how things go for next session, if I'm invited that is.

Video and TV Scoring
Ok, so here's the thing, I always fancied doing film scores and this opportunity came a long to do a score in a competition for "Bridgerton" and I took it. Simple as that. So with that under my belt, I jumped at putting in a score for a Yoga video and here's a couple of drafts I did as samples. Probably do a few more given time.
Sample Sound Tracks
The Bridgerton video can be viewed on the video page
A little fun with this Beatles song, just need to record the vocals and mix it down,
Unfortunately it's the wrong key for me to sing.
