Hi all,
Thanks to those who came and saw the last 10 Guitar Project gig on Tuesday night at Venue 505.
We have a brand new site: www.10guitarproject.com
Check it out!

Song Fwaa has a new website. Visit http://www.songfwaa.com/.
Original, unusual and conversational music from three of Australia’s finest improvisors; Martin Kay (alto sax), David Reaston (guitar), and Jamie Cameron (drums). Melodies, sometimes pretty, sometimes catchy, and occasionally abstract and angular, collide with improvisations chattering and emoting, propelling the listener on an exciting express. A fascination for texture and unusual tunings and forms led to a consensus to improvise and compose as a chamber ensemble. Song Fwaa views music as an open vessel into which ideas are dropped and stewed. One is as likely to encounter a ragged ragtime or a postbop scronk as much as a munted groove or a dodecaphonic row. Transcending the trio’s eclectic curiosity and its diverse stylistic range, Song Fwaa demonstrates a unity of purpose: creating passionate music that resonates in both mind and body.

Welcome to a new year. I just arrived back in Sydney from another trip to New York, and back teaching at AIM. Some exciting things planned this year: 10 Guitar Project will release their debut album; Reaston Kay Effect on tour; a possible recording with the Max Sharam trio. Stay tuned to the website for dates. David.
