This is my collection of meaningful male music. The Acousta songs are reflective and personal work, usually inspired by beauty in all it's forms. I look for beauty in the ordinary, in the things that surround us everyday if we only stop a moment to breathe in and take a look. These are often also story songs, taken from memories and thoughts, real and imagined.
These recordings range from simple productions with guitar and voice to lush arrangements that will transport you to far away places.
On A Clear Day featuring Maggy Mangraviti on vocals
Liberty - a song of freedom featuring David (Nduwimanu) Tresor on vocals.
What Will They Say - a call to climate action featuring Andy O'Donnell on vocals
