Vs1 of 'With Small We Start' (out April 19th) is about my dad. Here's a couple of pics of him on the farm in Balingup, WA where I lived until I was 6. Dad is also known as 'Lege' - short for 'Deadset Legend' - his chosen alternative to 'grandpa'.

Looking forward to it!

Despite having just landed back in Perth from LA after every flight going wrong, I think I managed to make sense when speaking to The James McMahon Music Podcast on his podcast. See for yourself: tr.ee/iUVWz8Yn1D & thank you James, it was great to talk with you!
