Tough day in the office! 🍻😂 Enjoying the best of the Irish at Ireland’s oldest pub (they claim) ‘Blakes of the Hollow’ in Enniskillen with my musical mate Gary Curruthers and our wonderful tour guide, Mark!

What better way to prepare for a long haul flight- a quick dip and a beer! 🍺 Who knows what the weather will be like on the other end but we'll have a great time regardless. I'll tell you all about it later... or you might hear about it in a song! 😉

Great catching up with The Wolfe Brothers, Christie Lamb and Lee Kernaghan at their concert in Mackay on Saturday night. A really enjoyable high energy show!
Sunday was spent a little more laid back- songwriting with Tom and Nick Wolfe (The Wolfe Brothers) for their upcoming album.
And to top off a great weekend, a drink (... or two) with three of our five sons to celebrate Fathers Day! 🥃🎉
How did you spend your weekend?

RON ADSETT
Yesterday we farewelled long time friend, colleague and valued mentor to many in the Australian music business; Ron Adsett.
During the service conducted by iconic country music broadcaster, Nick Erby, we heard the love of his life Rosie, together with son Reyn and Grandson Rion fill the room with stories of love, humour and pathos.
Fellow musicians and friends, Michael Fix, Troy Cassar-Daley, Laurel Edwards and Brendan Radford, paid musical tribute during the service and it was particularly poignant for me to hear my recording of ‘The Love I Leave Behind’ (written by Allan Caswell and Drew McAlister) accompany scenes from Ron’s life.
Catching up with so many industry greats and sharing memories of Ron's impact on our lives certainly helped ease the pain of loss.
Thank you Ron for the contributions you made to the careers of so many Australian artists in your various roles in promotion and retail. 🙏

| SUPPER CLUB SESSIONS |
Over the coming weeks I’ll be sharing a few of my favourite moments from the Supper Club Sessions✨ we held in Mackay recently.
Andrew Swift's performance of ‘King of the Sky’ was certainly a highlight of the night. His delivery of the song he wrote in honour of his late Uncle had the audience captivated. The recording is spectacular but live he takes it to another level altogether with power and range to burn - what a voice!
Enjoy!
