Buzzing around

Reports of airplay of ‘Long Time Dead’ from several sources are buzzing around. And that’s good.

ABC Radio, Triple R and other community stations are getting ‘onboard’, so to speak. Can’t be a bad thing.

‘Long Time’ going far

The first single ‘Long Time Dead’ from the new album Australia Restless is buzzing around out “there” nicely, with some inklings of airplay around the place and a general sense of traction happening. Already getting some airplay on the ABC and community radio, I’m stoked to say. More details soon, with the song available for download at

We have lift-off

So today is a big day of sorts

For the past year or so I have been working away with my brother Simon Gibson writing a new album. And under the guidance of Simon Holmes as producer (among other key roles) and with the assistance of Mark Na Na, Tim Byron and Matt Galvin to play on it, the whole shebang is beginning to take shape. To such an extent the first single off the record is being released tomorrow, March 3. It’s called ‘Long Time Dead’, and you can have a listen here as part of a new clip for the song…

You can also download the single here … (FREE FOR A LIMITED TIME)

Released on Monday…

Ok, the big news is I have a new “solo” album coming out in a few months’ time … and the first single is “released” on Monday, March 3.

Will update then, but the album is co-written with my brother Simon and produced by Simon Holmes.

More soon..2
