-
Save Me
“Save Me” is the most stripped-back song I’ve ever written — a desperate cry built from just a handful of words, an old instrumental reborn with heavy guitars, sweeping strings, and an AI band that gave it new life.
-
9am
A breakup day in four timestamps. From 5am to 10pm, “Right Back Here Again” follows coffee, chores, old photos, and that honest chorus about letting go without keeping score.
-
Because Of You
Because Of You is a thank-you to a relationship that ended and still mattered. It holds the idea that what you loved at the start is still true, and that love can shape you long after goodbye. I’m a better man for what we shared, and I carry the best parts forward.
-
Bored Saturday
Bored Saturday is an old instrumental I kept because it feels like a snapshot of a real moment. I wandered into my little music room, hit record, and stacked parts with no plan. It’s rough, simple, and honest, and a few passages still carry exactly how I felt that day.
-
What You Want To Be
What You Want To Be was written on a quiet night, looking at my little girl and promising her this simple truth: whatever path she chooses, I will be there. Fifteen years on, that promise still stands. The song is light, playful, and built around unconditional pride.
-
I Don’t Know (2020)
I Don’t Know 2020 is the draft, pre-AI-band version of a song about being stuck in a relationship you need to leave but cannot. The vocals are rough, the lyrics keep shifting, and that is the point. It shows the kind of concept track we feed into AI to shape the production and find the final voice.
-
Choices Made
Choices Made is a song about how a life takes shape one decision at a time. It sits with accountability and the ache of what might have been, then turns toward acceptance and the courage to choose better from here.
-
To Be Happy
To Be Happy is a song about chasing a feeling we cannot define. From playgrounds to night shifts, it asks why we keep taking advice from people who are still guessing, and suggests that letting go might be the start of the real thing.
-
Sister
“Sister” is a lighthearted, heartfelt birthday song I wrote many years ago for my sister. It was meant to be a fun, casual tribute, a little cheesy in places, but full of love. Looking back, I never thought this song would last, but somehow it did. It celebrates family, memories, and the special role my sister has played in shaping the people we’ve become.
-
Broken Glass
Broken Glass is a song about fragility, disillusion, and the weight of carrying truths we can’t face. It drifts through moments of chance encounters, restless escapes, and the crumbling of inner worlds. At its core, it’s about living inside something fragile and dangerous, where every step threatens to cut deeper.
-
My Plains Video Girl
My Plains Video Girl is a true story about a shy crush in small-town Toowoomba during the VHS era. The song remembers those awkward Sunday visits to the Plains Video store, the silent smiles, and the one magical night when the girl from behind the counter unexpectedly kissed me in a nightclub before disappearing forever. It is both funny and bittersweet, capturing the strange way some fleeting moments leave a permanent mark.
-
Your Smile
Your Smile is a song I wrote more than 14 years ago for my daughter. It reflects the joy, healing, and gratitude she brought into my life after a time when I thought I would never be a parent again. Simple in its words but deep in meaning, it celebrates the everyday moments that make being a parent so special.
-
Bungled And Botched
Bungled and Botched is a cynical reflection on how power quietly shapes the lives we lead. It speaks about the way corporations, governments, and even peers decide what we value, how we measure success, and what we consider freedom.
-
The Pain I Feel
The Pain I Feel is a song about my lifelong fight with anxiety. For years I thought I was broken, or just crazy. This track tells the story of the battles I have faced, the monsters I still live with, and the strength it takes to keep standing my ground. It is also a thank you and an apology to those who stood by me when I was lost in the darkness.
-
Help
Help is a song about drowning under the weight of everyday life while pretending to be fine on the outside. It is the quiet desperation of struggling to breathe, searching for strength you don’t have, and wishing someone would see through the mask and reach out a hand.
-
Anything At All
It’s been a while since we were ok,We got lost somewhere along the way.Such a heavy price we payed,But there’s still so much to save. We’ve been chasing things we don’t need,Distracted by comfort, blinded by greed,The path is clear, but we can’t see,Only believing what we want to believe. The more things change, the […]
-
Thanks To You
“Thanks To You” is a gentle song about gratitude, love, and the little things that make life extraordinary. It is a reminder that having someone who chooses to spend time with you, love you, and lift you up is the greatest gift of all.
-
Tell Me Something
“Tell Me Something” was pulled out of the maybe pile, given a little polish, and finally found its place. It is about the race through life, holding on to words of comfort, and searching for change as the years roll by. Some songs fade, but this one asked to stay.
-
You Promised Me Forever
“You Promised Me Forever” is a song about heartbreak in its rawest form — not just the pain of being left behind, but the frustration of hearing the same empty comfort lines over and over. People mean well when they say “time heals all wounds” or “you’ll move on,” but in the moment those words ring hollow.
-
I Knew You From School
I Knew You From School is one of the most personal songs I have ever written. It tells the story of a short but unforgettable romance during my final year of school, a time filled with excitement, discovery, and the intensity of first love.
-
Nothing Left To Steal
Nothing Left to Steal is a protest song about corporate greed and the cost of trading our lives for a system that only makes the rich richer. It asks why we tolerate a world where our time and energy are sold for someone else’s gain, and challenges us to wake up, speak out, and resist being treated as slaves to the machine.
-
Dance With Monsters
Dance With Monsters is a song about how easily people can be led when they mistake noise for truth. It pushes back against the culture of influencers who act like experts without substance, and against the quick-turn ideologies that dominate the moment. The song questions blind loyalty, false leaders, and the damage caused when pride replaces honesty.
-
Come Back Someday
Come Back Someday is one of the earliest songs we ever wrote. It is rough around the edges and far from perfect, but that is exactly why it has been left mostly untouched. Every word reflects how it felt in that moment — the heartbreak, the uncertainty, and the desperate hope for reconciliation.
-
I’m OK
I’m OK is a song about the kind of person who makes life’s storms bearable, the one you can always rely on no matter how heavy the days get. It is a thank you to the friend, partner, or loved one who stands with you through judgment, chaos, and doubt, reminding you that you are never alone.
-
Rising Water
I’ve been incredibly lucky in life, blessed with more than my share of truly special people. I’m grateful for the friends who’ve stood beside me. Rising Water is my way of honouring those friendships that last forever, no matter the distance, the years, or the storms we face.
-
Last Drive
“Last Drive” is the second part of the story that began with Last Dream of You. Where the first song was a quiet, almost dreamlike reflection on a love slipping away, Last Drive puts us firmly in the present, behind the wheel, in motion, with time running out.
-
Fist Full Of Nothing
“Fist Full Of Nothing” is the sound of a mind on overload, empty pockets, racing thoughts, daylight slipping away. It’s a small rebellion against the noise: lie back on the concrete, count the stars, let the world spin without you for a minute.
-
Different Worlds
“Different Worlds” was inspired by a life-changing experience during my first trip to the Philippines. I saw firsthand how people in need were treated by the tourists, ignored and dismissed as if their suffering didn’t matter. That day, Little Big Gift was born.
-
Move Forward
“Move Forward” is about embracing the flow of life, even when it feels like you’re stuck in the same old routine. It’s a song that reflects the small, everyday struggles, whether it’s a rainy morning or getting stuck in traffic, but ultimately, it’s about pushing forward.
-
Edge
“Edge” is a song about the disorienting feeling of going through life, from the highs to the lows, and never really understanding any of it.
-
Belong
“Belong” is a song that taps into that universal feeling of not quite fitting anywhere. It’s about the search for belonging, a journey that so many of us are on, even when it feels like we’re walking alone.
-
Spring Came My Way
“Springtime” is a joyful departure from my usual darker songs, a celebration of nature’s incredible ability to start fresh with every season. Written during a time when I was reflecting on the contrasts in life.
-
Last Dream Of You
This song came about one night as I drove alone, with nothing but the hum of the road and the flicker of headlights cutting through the dark. It made me reflect on the weight of losing someone and the haunting idea of having to say goodbye.
-
No Longer Afraid Of The Dark
No Longer Afraid of the Dark is a song about finding strength in solitude and refusing to let isolation define you. It begins in a place of invisibility and unspoken pain, where words go unheard and presence goes unnoticed.
-
If I Could Believe
This song is a quiet storm of unresolved emotion, a meditation on love lost without clarity or closure. It speaks from the hollow centre of heartbreak, where questions remain unanswered, and acceptance feels just out of reach.
-
How Could It Be?
This song is about feeling ancient not in age, but in spirit. It’s about the crushing, invisible weight that builds over time when you’ve spent too long just trying to keep going. When even breathing feels like a battle, and no matter how many days pass, the heaviness never really lifts.
-
Hey Now
Hey Now is a journey through heartbreak, self-discovery, and resilience. It is a story about two people walking the same road for a while, only to take different paths, and learning to find strength in the silence that follows. It is about letting go, holding on, and realising that sometimes the loneliest road is still the right one to take.
-
Looking Up
“Looking Up” is a defiant anthem for anyone who’s been kicked down by life but keeps standing back up, scraped, bruised, and stronger than before.
-
I Can’t Change
“I Can’t Change” is a song about heartbreak, escape, and the strange freedom that comes with letting go of everything, except the pain.
-
Lost Highway
Lost Highway is about that feeling we don’t always talk about, the slow, quiet unraveling that comes when you’re moving through life without a clear direction, just trying to make sense of it all.
-
Girl
This song is for someone I loved in a way that caught me off guard—deeply, unexpectedly, and without a plan. After a long time on my own I let her in, and even now, she’s still there in the quiet moments and lonely nights.
-
These Flowers
This song tells the story of a very special relationship, one that changed everything for me. Before it began, I had been single for a long time. I didn’t even realise I was lonely until I wasn’t anymore.
-
Hamster Wheel
This song explores the anxiety that keeps us trapped, the confusion of not knowing our purpose, and the quiet desperation of pretending everything’s fine just to make it through the day.
-
Just Pretend
This is a song about the quiet kind of struggle the kind that hides behind a smile. It’s about the weight of just getting by, of moving through days.
-
Goodbye
We wrote this song after losing someone we loved someone who felt like part of the furniture of our world. It’s strange how grief doesn’t always arrive like thunder.
-
Emperor’s New Clothes
This song came out of frustration, plain and simple. Frustration with a world that often rewards style over substance, noise over meaning, performance over truth.
-
Maybe
This is a song about losing someone you care deeply for, and how, when the weight of that loss hits, it’s often easier to retreat into the past than face what comes next.
-
I Don’t Know
We wrote this song for a friend who was trapped in a difficult relationship, one they deeply wanted to leave, but couldn’t.
