about

This record is for Sally L James
and so am I

'The past is life's undertow.'
Beverley Farmer, 'A body of water'

This recording was undertaken as a result of my winning one of the eight Professional Development Awards offered by the Australasian Performing Right Association in 2011. I am immensely grateful for the opportunities provided by the award; this kind of encouragement is so valuable, so germinal, so humbling and so keenly treasured. To APRA, and to the sponsors of the award, my deepest thanks; my most sincere indebtedness. Thanks to to Simon Todkill, for a session that was thoroughly delightful. The patience and understanding Simon demonstrated, to say nothing of his extraordinary efficiency, made the day both rewarding and memorable. I should like also to thank Tim Dunn, who is now something of a cornerstone to my creative life; his consistent interest and concern are decisive in my continuing to write and to play. Many thanks to Tim Bass, for the use of his beautiful artwork, and to Cheryl Orsini for once again managing the design so skilfully, so thoughtfully. And here's to some very charming and supportive mates: Andrew Ogburn, Anastasia Russell-Head, Alison Lemoh, Anja Grant, Emma Cable, Mary Keyes, Mark Isaacs, Andrew Ford, Chris Lawson, Ben Robertson and Dave Beck. My parents, too. You're all so grouse. Finally protracted thanks and inexhaustible love to my better fifths: Sall, Oli, Fred, and Lu-scoob. Nothing at all were possible without your love, your faith, your support.
