Behind the Album
"I began writing what I thought would be my debut album, almost thirty years ago. Life got in the way, and the next thing I knew, it was now…
​
This album is a thirty-year collection of stories of life, love and loss. I dedicate it to Amy, Leah & Brian, the loves of my life. Who, where, or what I’d be without you, I can’t imagine.
To Mum and Dad, where my love of music and poetry began. I dedicate my covers of Everybody Hurts and Crossroads to my Dad, my hero. Thank you for filling the house with music and my head with notions and dreams. Mum, sing with me, wherever you are.
​
Sincere gratitude and love to family, friends and all who have supported, inspired and lived with me along the way.
​
To my grandson, Nick, a special dedication all of your own. Thank you, precious boy, for filling our world with new love.
​
Special thanks to producer, Mark Cahill, muse, mentor and maestro, for making me believe that I can, and for breathing new life into both my music and my mojo.
​
Forever grateful to you."

For the Listeners
The songs on No Fury are deeply personal, but I hope they resonate with you, offering comfort or inspiration in some small way. From the anthemic “Everybody Hurts ~ Fix You” mashup to the gentle, introspective “Darling Man” and “All I Have To Say,” there’s a song for every moment.
Thank you to my family and friends who have supported me on this journey. It’s been a long road, but we’ve arrived, and I’m so proud to share this piece of my heart with you.
Musical Influences
Listeners will hear influences from many corners of my life—musical theatre, country, rock, poetry and classical music. The theatrical flair is no surprise, as that’s where my heart lies. But there are also quieter, more reflective moments, capturing the wide array of emotions and experiences I’ve lived through.
