Detroit is a welcome return from one of Australia’s great rock renaissance men – testament to the fact that you can’t keep a great man down.
Descent Into The Maelstrom
“I didn’t know that so much of the album was going to be about Detroit when I starred recording it and started writing it, but after it was finished that was how it had turned out.”
Post Motor City
"After Birdman broke up in 2007, I was looking for a new outlet and also going through a difficult time in my life, and that can aid the creative process a little bit, and I had been back to Detroit and visited and started writing, and those were the songs that came out over about a two-year period.”
