I just had two big shows at this art gallery here in town. Great lighting and venue, some empty seats but that’s to be expected. I had a taco truck the first night and an ice cream truck the second. I made just over $500 in tips ($250 per night). It was a great show!

Again, not posting this stuff anywhere else until it’s all done, but I’m real happy with how this one’s come out, given it’s my first real stab at this home recording lark. I’m gonna spend a few days listening on as many different speakers and devices as possible, make tweaks accordingly, and call this one done 😁 Posting it here because I appreciate y’all’s input, and you may well hear a bunch of stuff that I don’t. Would love to know what you think!

So I've been pretty quiet for a couple of months looking after my folks (both had a fall, a day apart from each other 🤦🏻), but I'm back with a god damn vengeance 😤 Me and my buddy went up into the hills at an old coal works near me yesterday and shot three one-shot performances of what will be my first live EP. In the background of this, I'm also working on "studio" versions at home with more layers to them, and cutting a bunch of promotional shorts for each song. Once they're done, I'll be putting the live videos up on YouTube to try and push the whole thing. I think I over-plan sometimes, but as a project I'm really enjoying myself with this; I wrote all three of these back in February/March, so above all it's nice for them to be somewhere other than in my own head at last. Sharing them here as a preview as this community's been a wonderful hang for me this year - please keep them here; I'm not ready to go fully public with them yet. Any and all feedback appreciated, and I'll for sure keep you guys updated with my plans as they develop if you're interested :)

Hey guys hope everyone is doing well im looking for some advice i recently got accepted to have a virtual audition for Australian idol which went well but if i get accepted I’ve always struggled with big crowds would anyone know of something that helps with nerves when performing

Finally found time to bust out the new LR Baggs AEG1 acoustic guitar from the box. Adding this to the collection. But thanks to the wifey for this gift. It’s a badass acoustic guitar I swear. Specially when plugged. I have only two acoustic amps and it sounds great in both. Also hooked it into my little Bose S1 pro and it sounds fantastic! Be hitting the road again tomorrow early o clock so kinda bummed out although I will be looking forward to getting back home later. This is edited from the original video I earlier sent to @Brad Simon for maybe helpful information about the instrument
