Beno and I will be trying to give away $1000 in cold hard cash this Thursday at Orange’s Canobolas Hotel! Seriously people, if you aren’t already a badge member @ The Nob, then you darn ought to be, and get down there on Thursday. Not only will you hear quirky cool versions of some of your favourite tunes, and have the joy of firing a ridiculous request at Beno and I (that we’ll probably attempt), but you could also win yourself some serious CASH (that Mr Swan can’t even get his grubby little hands...

These days I do most of my gigs on the bass, but if I’m true to myself the piano is my first love, and where I feel most at home. I started playing it when I was five years old, so it seems almost as natural to me as breathing. I feel so lucky to have secured a residency on the piano upstairs at The Oxford in Bathurst, every Friday from 7pm-10pm. We’re trying to make it everything that a city Piano Bar would be. Cocktails, an awesome chilled atmosphere, music you certainly won’t hear at any other venue... [Read the full story]

We’re doing two big shows at Orange Ex-Services club and we’re looking forward to seeing the miners (and the bosses) let their hair down for the end of the financial year. Read More →

Well here’s something I didn’t think I’d do. Travel overseas to entertain our troops serving in active duty. However, as luck would have it Falcon Road were given the amazing opportunity to head to East Timor for a week to do just that. I was prodded with plenty of needles to avoid catching some nasty (and I mean nasty) diseases that are on offer over there. I... [Read more]
I can’t believe I was part of the Australian Tour, supporting legendary country rockers Brooks and Dunn! Yes, THE Brooks and Dunn. As Jasmine’s faithful trio, Mish Trav and I were completely pumped, and took the stage at Perth Superdomeand Brisbane Entertainment Centre on the bill with Dierks Bently and Brooks and Dunn. This was a dream come true for me. I have been... [Read more]
