For about 10\nyears we played a number of gigs between Albury\/Wodonga and Melbourne, mostly\nat the old Soden\u2019s in Albury. Since then I&#8217;ve been mainly doing solo gigs. I\ndid have a stint with some talented local musicians joining me (Brent Shirley\nBand). More recently I&#8217;m lucky enough to be joined by local guitarist Jared\nBuckley from time to time, when he&#8217;s not doing his own gigs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How did you get into\nmusic?<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mainly from\nhearing my older brother playing guitar in his room when I was about 12 and\nthinking he was pretty cool. Like most people, my teenage years were a bit\ntough at times, so it was good to have something to put my time in to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What are some of your\ncareer highlights so far?<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I released a\nself-titled E.P. in late 2015. I supported Tim Rogers at a gig in Wagga a few\nyears ago when I was pretty new to solo performing, You Am I was the first band\nI ever saw, so I was pretty stoked, Brent Shirley Band ended up supporting You\nAm I at the SSA a few years later. Another great gig is the Galah Bar at the\nhothouse theatre. Jared and I headlined the last time I played there and its\nalways great when the entire venue is filled with silent punters that are\nactually watching and enjoying what your putting out there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mag.atomicmusic.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/8ca09993-1024x684.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-81\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What can we look forward\nto in the future?<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My current\nsingle &#8216;lost in the rain&#8217; was released in July 2019, which I wrote about being\nunsure of myself both socially and as an adult in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"250\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/stream.atomicmusic.space\/?p=embed\/track\/373-lost-in-the-rain&amp;color=ff00e6\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p>Brent Shirley\u2019s\nnew single &#8216;Lost in The Rain&#8217; was released in July 2019.
