2026 - August & September

Hi Friends,

This is the start of a new approach (new for me) to promoting gigs and letting everyone know what I’ve been up to/getting up to, for the people who are interested.

Instead of constantly sharing every moment on social media (mainly Instagram) which is a whole topic we could easily go into a deep dive discussion about. I believe this way of direct communication could be the best way for musicians in the long run. Creating more of a slower approach to building a community. 

So, let’s test it out. 

 

Starting with the main point – GIGS 

This coming August is WorldManias biggest month yet,

AugustMania!

  • 7th of August – Live Recording at Kokomo’s Freo for WAM WA Music Week. 

  • 15th August – Late Night Set at the Ellington 

  • 29th August – Jazz Connect Festival at livid skate café Scarborough

Other notable performances for August – September

*More info by pressing the hyperlink or on the individuals’ socials 

 

My Goal is to keep these email updates as short and sweet as possible, as not everyone has the time to read through countless paragraphs of someone talking about themselves…

SO, the main music/general life updates – 

I’ve been in New York City for the past 5 weeks! And am currently writing this from my next visit, Los Angeles. Before heading back to Perth in a few days. met so many amazing individuals and am excited to get working using what I’ve learnt!

 

That’s all the main stuff!

I’m keen to hear what everyone else has coming up :)
