Faraway Famous
I’m really happy to be back at Faraway Bay again for another stint as head chef. I love it – nice people, beautiful surroundings and great local produce.
One thing I’ve really enjoyed is the cooking school with Chris Taylor, which is on this week. I’ve never met him before but I've picked up some great tips, and he's pretty cool.
The rumours are true – I’ve just released my first album called Further (which is available from itunes). It’s acoustic guitar and I recorded it with Ben Franz from the Waifs.
The National Australia Bank has bought four of the songs and they’re going to put it on an ad. I couldn’t really say no to something like that. I think the ads start on TV in August.
I do get the guitar out most nights at Faraway Bay, so if you’re staying, you might get a personal performance.
