One more time ... playing again!


SCALA (Songwriters, Composers And Lyricists Association) celebrates its 25th birthday next Thursday, 22 November and I'm doing a set of my originals.

Also playing are Darren Zaza, who was the sound engineer at our venue for a number of years, the wonderful Candy Q and award winning songwriter, Kyle Landman.

It all kicks off at Higher Ground in the north west corner of Light Square, Adelaide at 8pm (when I'm playing). Doors open at 7.30. I hope to see you there!

Living In An Old Farmhouse now on Bandcamp



Now on BandCamp
http://robertchilds.bandcamp.com/album/living-in-an-old-farmhouse
Multiformats available

This was a home studio recording from 1986.  Most of the songs were written in 1979 when I was living in the old farmhouse shown in the cover photo.  It was issued originally on (a few) cassettes only.

These are home recordings so there are technical imperfections.

I'm on Songcatcher radio program Monday, 21 May 2012

SongCatcher is an award winning Radio program on Radio Adelaide 101.5 which has songwriters as guests each Monday night at 9pm (Central Australian time).  The program is also streamed on the web.

I'm the next victim up for dissection on Monday, 21st May!

Crikey!

"How Long Must I Keep Up This Pretence?"



I've added another song to my Reverbnation player. I wrote "How Long Must I Keep Up This Pretence?" on 25 April 2006 but didn't play it in public until my recent gig (19 April 2012) for SCALA at Higher Ground Inc. This version is a recording from a rehearsal (16 April).

I'm playing again!

I'm currently number 10 AND number 11 on the ReverbNation Singer Songwriter charts for Adelaide, SA, AU. www.reverbnation.com/robertchilds.  Bizarre!  I think Reverbnation's "new look" has some bugs.  See you all tomorrow, Thursday 19 April, when I play for SCALA at Higher Ground.
