Artist description I don't set out to write depressing music. But it always seems to find me. I can't escape it. It's partly what I grew up listening to. Johnny Cash, Wall of Voodoo, The Church, Paul Kelly and the Messengers, Ennio Morricone, Crowded House, a-ha and more recently Sixteen Horsepower have all had major influences on my songwriting. But mostly it's me. I don't feel the creative muse unless I'm sad or depressed. And for better or for worse, I'm always in some sort of low-grade depression.
