“Lights in the Night Sky” is a gentle, atmospheric acoustic song for children Built around fingerstyle acoustic guitar and warm vocals. Inspired by Matariki, the Māori New Year, and the Matariki stars in New Zealand’s winter sky.

I wrote it about night time because as a child I was quite afraid of he dark and I wanted to make something comforting that showed that there isn’t anything to be afraid of.

“Duck” is the story of the fastest duck alive, with a driving beat, guitars, synths, and
plenty of quacking!

It’s a song I wrote for my beginner guitar students, designed to be fun, easy to play,
and easy to quack along to. After all, what could be an easier chorus to sing along to
than “Quack!”?

Like most of my songs, it involves quirky animal characters — this one being a turbocharged
duck with heat-shielding feathers and absolutely no respect for speed limits.
It’s also included as a song in my new Beginner Guitar Starter Kit, which is designed to
make learning fun and easy for beginners.

I wrote this song after I heard someone say, “Christmas is just for kids.” But I don’t think you ever grow out of Christmas, because you don’t grow out of things like love, peace, and hope. Christmas time is for people of all ages, not just for kids.

So I wrote a Christmas song with a nostalgic feel—something that captures how special the season can be. Despite the challenges life throws at us in these modern times, you’re never too old for things like love, peace, hope, and all of that stuff.

Twist my tongue is a song for kids that sets the classic tongue twisters Peter Piper, Betty Botter, Fuzzy Wuzzy, I Thought A Thought and Proper Cup Of Coffee to music. It has a grooving baseline, synths and guitars.
