The process

Love the Musical came about almost as an accident. I began writing songs as a “therapy” for the events that came up in my life; happy, sad, exciting, frustrating, as you know. I had written about five songs at the time and brought them to my friend in Tasmania who owns a recording studio and had planned to begin recording for a possible album. After a session of playing with the songs and exploring the worlds they were living in, he turned to me and said, “Mate, you’re not writing an album. You’re writing a musical.” Immediately, I drove back home and wrote more. My brain then imagined every other song on a stage, almost blocking itself.
