About the 'band' and the album


Greg Barnett

Gold Coast, Australia

Greg Barnett was born in UK in the early 1950’s and has ended up on the Gold Coast (Queensland, Australia) via several sliding doors.

Greg grew up listening to show tunes and variety music and was influenced in his teens by the Beatles, and all the subsequent innovations in pop, rock and folk. He also recalls how deeply sound effects on the radio triggered his imagination. "Flat White" shows many of these influences, builds on his writing and production skills from two previous successful co-written albums, and reflects his prefererence for solitary work in the 'studio' rather than the hassle and mayhem of performing in public.

Following a creative dry spell after his efforts on 'Prescient', the music itch returned with a vengeance. This triple-album was a way to clear the decks of all new and old material. The 'story' behind THE FLAT WHITE ALBUM, the creation of each song, and the production process is given in the companion Songbook Introduction, along with lots of other free material.
