NEW EP/CD FROM BARDT0 BALLADEER

After a rewarding career as a Bush Poet, I’ve turned my hand to writing Bush Ballads . In 2005, I entered the Katherine Country Music Muster’s Northern Territory Country Music Song Writing Competition and won the Lyrics Only Section with ‘Chasing Buttons.’ At Tamworth in 2006, I scored three out of the five nominations in the TSA National Song Writing Competition ‘s Lyrics Only Section and won with ‘The Maintop Balladeer.’ Then again in 2006 I entered the Katherine Country Music Muster’s, Northern Territory Country Music Song Writing Competition and won the Lyrics Only Section with ‘Granddad’s Crusty Damper.’ In May 2006 I was advised that I had three out of the ten nominations in the Lyrics Only of the T.S.A’s South-East Queensland Branch’s Song Writing Awards and picked up a second place for “I Wish I Were a Crocodile” and third place for ‘Son Play Another Coster Song’.

These award winning songs have been included on a new 7 track EP/CD called ‘From Bard to Balladeer.’ They include, ‘Granddad’s Crusty Damper’, ‘The Bravest of the Brave’ [A tribute to young Sophie Delezio] R.M. Williams – a Man Who Had Tried’, ‘Son Play another Coster Song’, ‘I Never Cried For Elvis But I Shed A Tear For Slim,’ ‘Chasing Buttons’ and ‘The Maintop Balladeer.’ [A tribute to Wave Jackson]. I wish to thank Buddy Thomson of Outback Studios for engineering the album and playing rhythm guitar. Lynne Bennett for backing vocals and bass guitar. Michael Pincott, lead & rhtyhm guitar, also mandolin. John and Eleanor Briskey of Sundown Music for their encouragement.

$17.00 includes P&H
