about

The journey of this album began almost three years ago in Pankow Park, Berlin whilst bunkering up with fellow Sydney Siders Adam and Miriam in their cosy German loft. Most of the record was inspired by my solo travels throughout Europe and the post-travel adjustment of returning home to Suburbia after having seen so much and changed just the same.

Thank you largely to Ryan K Brennan for your patience and collaboration and wonderful work ethic in helping me make this.

Huge thank you to my local benefactors for their continued support in the funding and elevation of my art and music over the years and most notably this year. Without you the songs would probably still be scattered on my desktop.

Thank you to my pals Matthew Dewar, Nic Cassey, Jack Isaacson whom were instrumental in bringing these songs to life in the rehearsals and recording sessions. To Chris Raicevich at Turtlerock studios who shared his time and skillz for the recording of 'Man For You' and 'The Way That You Want'.
Thanks to Blain Cunneen for your tasty riffs on Cologne, Bayview and Fever St.

Thank you to Jesse Squire for never sugar coating anything. To Andrew Golledge for bringing me puppies when I'm sad and for both of your harmonies on 'The Way That You Want' while I was giggling.

Thank you to my darling little older sister for always pushing me to be better, to keep trying and to believe in myself. Thank you to my family who have fostered my life long obsession for making things and who continue to encourage me to follow my dreams even when they turn me into a nightmare.

Thank you to Evening Records Co. Now my music has a door to walk through at the end of the day... and a street to run down in excitement to said door.

To Ramo- thank you for your big smiling love and believing in me when I've run out of steam.

"Never give up, never say die, never say never" ... or something.

A multi-faceted tour-de-force, singer-songwriter darby brings to the fore elements of country pop, folk, and ‘melt-yer-heart’ soul.
