about

LA Groovin’ is a “Concept Album”, born out of my time spent in both Los Angeles and New York during the mid 1990’s.

After my Band 1927 decided to take a 1 Year hiatus, I decided to move to the US to explore other musical avenues and was lucky enough to be able to live and work with my good friend Jeff Baxter (Doobie Brothers, Steely Dan) in Bel Air, and soak up the sights and sounds of the West Coast American music culture that had influenced much of my Career.

This Album is a celebration of my time in America, all the sights and sounds, and the many wonderful people that I met, and the fabulous musicians that I worked with during that 6 month period.

The title track LA Groovin’ was inspired by the excitement a young Aussie guitar player felt at first landing in Los Angeles, and the closing track One Final Word encapsulates my feelings of leaving my musical “Promised Land”. The rest are the stories in between.

I hope you enjoy LA Groovin’ as much as I did living my American Musical Dream.
