SUBURBAN SONGBOOK - OUT NOW!! OUT NOW!!!!!!

Pic: Kriv Stenders

hello and welcome...

I’m a Sydney-based Australian writer who since the late 70s has built up a long list across (eleven) books, television, journalism, CD productions, all sorts of stuff, mainly on local music, popular culture and social history. This old-skool site is a guide through that stuff – a combination storefront/archive/laboratory, with a NEWS feed as close as I get to despotic social media. The archival BACKPAGES and RE-MIXED sections amount to a veritable database going even deeper into (mainly Australian) music (history). I’m too old to be an enfant terrible, but with the way I still seem to be able to court controversy, I must be some sort of loose cannon! Have a look around, enjoy; link further to the standalone BURIED COUNTRY site too…

Interstate launch events planned for the new year but one in Sydney on Wednesday December 8 - for more details on that and on the great response and coverage the book is getting go to the NEWSfeed here.
