25.01.2022 thanks for listening xx

25.01.2022 A quick explanation of the Morrison's Arts Rescue package for my non-Arts friends so they can understand why the arts community is outraged. $250,000,000 seems ...like a lot of money. Divide that equally into the 600,000 people that work in the sector that is about $416 per person. Not per week, but a ONCE OFF payment of $416. The arts sector contributes $112,000,000,000 (112 billion) to our economy. It's nice that the government is willing to contribute less than than one quarter of one percent of that to 'kickstart' the industry. Thats 1/448th of the industry's annual turnover. All of that money is tied up into Grants and Loans - oh and if you make Films/TV. So nobody is getting that pathetic $416 once off payment anyway. Loans: The government will guarantee a loan from a bank to a producer of a show, concert, tour, festival. As a producer of a show why would you borrow money to put into something that was guaranteed to lose money? Social distancing doesn't allow to have enough people in a theatre to make money. Theatres need about 80% sold to make a profit. It's a guaranteed loss. Grants: You have to compete for these, which means only a few large production companies will get this. They can then use the money to put on an event/concert etc when social distancing returns. In like 6 months or so. Even then the shows will lose money, which further deflates the viability of running such a thing. $75,000 is what the grants start at. You could run something small once, maybe - and pay some people for a few weeks at most. Then what? So - where does it leave all of the musicians, dancers, actors, choreographers, lighting techs, sound engineers, writers, composers, videographers, painters, drawing artists, directors, etc etc etc - nearly all of those people do NOT qualify for Job Keeper, and will not see a cent of this grant / loan money. Many of these people do not work through an ABN. They have short term contracts with production companies who are now not paying them. If any of these people are getting JobKeeper, which many aren't - it will run out soon and won't be eligible for further payments. Guy Sebastian is a judge on a talent show. He will keep getting paid. He could be a beneficiary of this if he decides to run a loss making tour. He could borrow from the bank to run a tour that nobody can go to leaving him with a huge debt to one of the banks. I'm so sorry people but this government does not understand the arts. If you think $750/week is hard to live off, try living off $416 for the rest of the year, because there is no other money. Essentially, it's too late, it's not enough and it's not aimed at anybody who actually works in the sector.

11.01.2022 Dear Friends, Family and Fans (omg what?) This is my latest single, potentially the most important song I make in my whole life, for many reasons, please listen, share and support if you free so inclined. Those of you who know me, know i’m fond of the pen, so if you care, keep reading ... I’ve been through a lot, but regardless of whatever I went through, I always kept two things in my pockets; Passion and Vision. I have been working for free in the Australian music industry for the last however many years and now find myself in a position where I can gurantee being a musician as a life path. I noticed music was my life path when I was 16 but kept quiet. My connection to my surroundings and empathetic feelings are a handful but my intuition is never wrong. I did everything I could to put myself in a place where I could make a living off music... here we go. You now get to hear my fractured melodies mixed with my meticulous memories, through the lenses of alter egos, AKA the voices in my head. I’m going to change Sydney forever, Sydney will no longer be how it was before Covid, this is my time, this is our time. If you want to be involved please dm me. For now please listen, like and share, cliche yes, but it works Much Love, Tommy
