Christian Church Music | Christian Songbooks

I write Australian Christian Songs, perform them, lead people in singing, put song collections together — of my own songs, and lots of other people’s too — record songs, and try to spread them around. Especially songs that Christians can sing together.

Australian Christian Music Artist, All Together SongbooksMy songs have been sung by lots of people for a long time. Mostly by people in churches and church schools. I’ve written a host of songs for Christians to sing. More than a hundred of these have been published in various collections. The biggest number have appeared in the 5 All Together Songbooks produced by Openbook Publishers between 1980 and 2001. (Also in no. 6 & soon to be released no.7, self-published - business name, Curly Music) 8 are in the current Australian Hymnbook, Together In Song. A lot more have appeared in the songbooks of the biennial NCYC (National Christian Youth Convention).
Making Australian Christian Songs

Born and bred in southern Australia, I’ve lived in Adelaide most of my life. Making music is my main occupation but I’ve also been a schoolteacher (briefly) and worked for churches.

Since 1969 I’ve been married to Dorothy. We’ve got 3 adult children: Kristin, Jon & Thom.
