Bread & Water

In the early '90s, my father Steve Lucas recorded an acoustic, country-esque album titled "Bread and Water". Below, you can download my bedroom-recording cover of the title track. You can also stream the original record in it's entirety by clicking the link above.
I hope you enjoy listening, on this rainy Sunday morning.
Special thanks to Rob Irish for recording this for me, so you can all actually hear it properly. x

Sibylle Baier

When I discovered the music of Sibylle Baier for the first time, I felt like I had found a real treasure. Perfect, warm music for the wintertime. x

Hell and High Water

On Thursday I returned to BJB Studios in Surry Hills, to record a special version of "Hell & High Water". I stole the piano skills of Luke Bacon to take with me. This session was kind of a prelude to the three days I am planning to record there in June, which I am equally excited and nervous about, so please cross your fingers for me. I am currently working on collecting a few special guests to help out, and am very lucky to have the super engineering & producing skills of Chris Townend behind the session.

I wrote "Hell & High Water" when I was 17, on a rusty banjo. It was recorded on garageband, and featured sythesised strings. Some of you may have heard the song for the first time live, in it's piano form on the night of the Low show. Those who didn't can either anticipate and imagine this new version as a mystery, or download a live recording (thanks to the trusty iphone) from that evening here.... one day I may even unearth the original...
