Last year in November, I made an appearance with my guitar on a national radio show called ‘Get This’, hosted by a famous Australian comedian named Tony Martin. It made for one heck of a birthday, and I guess that means that one of my songs, technically, has been heard all around Australia, doesn’t it?

The song is about Richard Marsland (the panel operator on ‘Get This’) and was played while a support rally for the show was on the streets outside the studios.

So please enjoy this bit of self indulgence, which has nothing to do with anything Nightlight except it’s me.

‘The Saga Continues…’

A long time ago in a galaxy basically just around the corner in the grand scheme of things, it is a period of civil war. During the mighty battle, rebel spies manage to steal the secret plan to the empire’s ultimate weapon: the Dud Star, an intergalactic fast food restaurant complete with warp drive and shiny new seats. When they ask you if you want fries with that, I highly recommend you say ‘yes please’.
