wide awake & dreaming - a song from the upcoming album, played on a beautiful guitar from La Réselle Guitars on a boat somewhere in switzerland.. ps the Boy & Bear tour starts next month across north america and the shows are starting to sell outttt. all the dates and info at www.boyandbear.com 🎈

leaving australia today ✈️ i have had this serious look on my face for too many days, maybe it’s time to turn off the phone and laptop again 📱💻

gooood morning 🎈

i found a bunch of old photos from the last few years on the road.. #findingoldphotos

i found this old Boy & Bear setlist from 2010. it was the first show of the tour, in byron bay. i remember Tim Hart and i opening the show and being followed by Passenger, it was the first time i saw him play. then we all jumped up to sing Bon Iver's flume together, it feels like a lifetime ago! hitting the road with Boy & Bear through north america is gonna be another incredible adventure and will bring back so many memories! their australian shows have SOLD OUT and i think the same will happen in canada and the states, so if you wanna come hang out, go grab tickets asap 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 #findingoldphotos #catsofinstagram #smithers

TEN YEARS AGO - i did my first proper tour and it was such an adventure playing every capital city in australia in eight days straight! 🇦🇺 currently dreaming up an even crazier world tour for next year.... where should i go? 🌏🌍🌎 original artwork by Jefferton James Designs ❤️

a little playlist of some songs that i have been listening to on lazy mornings over the last little while.. https://spoti.fi/2Y849Ia Spotify

NORTH AMERICA - this feels like a dream but I think it's actually happening..... I can not wait to hit the road with Boy & Bear for a bunch of shows in September and October!! These guys let me tag along when they were starting out as a band and took me on some of my very first tours, it feels incredible to be joining them on the road again, I could not be more thankful. I also can't wait to play some of these new songs along the way and see how they feel. Come hang out somewhere along the way - www.boyandbear.com

I spent most of last month hiding away in a studio with these two incredible humans recording the new album. Simon and Tim gave absolutely everything to this project and I could not be more thankful to them or more happy with the outcome, we can’t wait for you to hear itttttt! Tim Hart / Golden Retriever

I spent the last two days with some wonderful humans in an amazinggg studio in Brisbane, starting to work on a few little things for the new album..... kind of... maybe... Thank you Tim Hart for believing in me and this new collection of songs and for giving your time and energy and genius brain so willingly and whole-heartedly to this project. Thanks also Jed Appleton for coming to hang out and for adding your magic touch to things and also Steve for being a boss engineer in the studio.
