Hayden Smith
I am currently working with Hayden Smith, an active and prolific songwriter, recording artist and producer who creates compelling and thoughtful music that sits somewhere between traditional and modern hip-hop, indie and soul.
Here is some of his recent work:
Listen on Bandcamp
Revellers
I played bass in punk rock band Revellers during an incredible three years from around 2012. During that time we released two EPs: "Night Time Lunatics" and "Your Round", both of which were mixed and mastered by some incredible legends of punk rock Stephen Egerton (Descendents, Less Than Jake, The Flatliners) and Jason Livermore (Rise Against, NOFX, Comeback Kid) respectively.
Lamexcuse
Lamexcuse, the band I started playing in during year 10 (circa 1998). Life changing stuff. We spent the best part of 12 years writing, practicing and travelling playing our music. But mostly we spent the time having some incredibly great times and growing up somewhat.
