65 Tom Richardson (Australian singer/songwriter).

Tom Richardson is a sublime Australian acoustic and blues singer/songwriter, who's had his music featured on Rip Curl surfing documentaries, played shows & festivals in 15 different countries around the planet and has just dropped his brand new ‘Pockets’ EP, which he’s going to be touring around Australia, Canada and Europe in 2016.

Today’swonderful, ranging & inspiring chats cover ambition and travelling the world as a solo musician since the age of 21, living in Bali and recording an EP in the middle of the jungle in Bali with crickets, geckos, motorbikes and Jetstar’s Denpaser flight as backing vocals, finding a life partner in Canada & the invaluable life lessons they teach each other,  his first ever memory as a child, going into the surf with his dad and the feelings of pure exhilaration & joy that surfing brings, coming into your own as a person, creator and performer by not being afraid to be open & honest with yourself and others, which is when you feel truly happy.

I just get so excited that I’m able to support good people in their ambitious pursuits & doubly so when they produce such magical music & are so damn inspiring!

64 Demi Louise (Australian folk singer/songwriter).
Oh man… that Demi Louise… she’s just a little ray of sunshine!

Demi and I met a few years back via Twitter and since we’re both jetting off to Austin (TX) in just 4 weeks for SXSW, we were like… let’s hang out and do a podcast together!😃

Demi Louise is an Australian folk pop singer songwriter who has travelled the world with her music performing at the world’s largest music conference, SXSW (Austin, TX), International Folk Alliance (Kansas), CMJ Music Marathon in New York, Liverpool Sound City Music Festival (UK), MUCON & Zandari Festival in South Korea and Canadian Music Week (Toronto).

At age 22, the Melbourne based singer/songwriter made a bold decision to travel the globe, build a fanbase organically through solid live shows and tap into international audiences beyond the Australian market by interacting andconnecting with fans of intern ational artists of a similar style to her own from around the world on Twitter.

As a result of this simple, but astute foresight, Demi Louise now boasts a combined social media following of more than 60K+and she has racked upalmost a quarter of a million views on YouTube. These are exactly the kind of digital tactics that all Australian musicians should utilize if theyre hoping to move beyond a small and saturated music market of just 23 million people that reside within our shores.

Demi’s down with the selfies, a demon on Twitter & Snapchat, so don’t forget to show her the Twitter love while you’re listening to today’s podcast and say hey to us both. Her social links & mine are all in the podcast show notes.

I’ve got so much admiration & respect for individuals who put in the hard yards to create their own worlds and their hard-earned money where their mouth is - Demi has not only self-funded all recording of her music, but all of her travels around the world! 

Yes, Demi Louise, you are damn inspiring, girl… get get ‘em, tiger!

63 Aleksandar Jason (Australian photographer & entrepreneur).
Inspiring Australian photographer Aleksandar Jason - working with kick-ass brands & living the dream!

Sitting here buzzing after my interview with Australian
commercial, sports and wedding photographer, Aleksandar Jason.

Aleks and I met in Brunswick St, Fitzroy (Melbourne) back in 2011 through wicked Aussie bands The Belligerents and The Griswolds. At the time, Aleks was shooting for his music photography blog, adamNoteve and working with Johann Ponniah (founder of Australian music company, brand and independent record label, I Oh You!), whilst I was working in the music industry and also shooting freelance music photography for Hot & Delicious/various other publications.

Flash forward 5 years and Aleks now has an impressive list of commercial clients that he’s worked with including Nike, Vice Magazine, Oakley, HeinekenJameson Whiskey, General Pants just to name a few... Not only that, he has a thriving wedding photography business, is Melbourne City’s (A-League Football) official photographer and has well over 140,000 followers on Instagram.

Super inspiring chats as we talk of Aleks' experience of being flown to Spain as Heineken’s official photographer/Instagrammer for the UEFA Champions League, being followed on Instagram by Instagram and featured by Instagram on their platform… twice! and much, much more.

Aleksandar Jason exemplifies the hard work, hunger and determination it takes to build a successful business doing what you love for a living.  

Just awesome... Let’s get amongst it!
