GCMC Newsletter March/April 2016 - No: 273 Monthly ne0sle8er .roudly sho0casing and su..orng the Country Music of today. Here is one of the most in demand people in Country Music; not just for his musical prowess, but for his contribution to film production with his production company Filmery. His music video’s, documentaries, and short films are legendary - setting a record by winning 7 successive Golden Guitars for "Music Video of the Year" for his work with Lee Kerna- ghan , Sara Storer and The McClymonts . For over 20 years he has been a highly sought after guitarist, having played and toured extensively with many of Australia’s biggest country music stars. He is also a member of the Golden Guitar winning, the Adam Eckersley Band . You have all seen his work. Now we get to know the man behind the scenes - Duncan Toombs . Stewart Ray: Welcome again to the V.I.P Lounge , and welcome to todays special guest, the award winning film director and musician Duncan Toombs . Duncan Toombs: Gidday Stew. How ya goin? SR: Good thanks Mate. Make yourself comfortable. Help yourself to the Fantales, Jelly Babies, and Mentos. We did have M & Ms, but Lyn Bowtell ate them all (laughs). Duncan: This lounge is comfy. I think I might sleep the night if that’s alright (laughs). SR: Duncan and I go way back when we worked together at International Music in Toowoomba. I taught him everything he doesn’t know (laughs). We would often get industry legends come in and talk to us about the amaz- ing gigs they did, the places they went and that kind of stuff. How does it feel to be part of all that now? Duncan: Since then I’ve gone on to do a lot of different gigs all over the world. I love what I do, and love every opportunity that comes my way, and always try my best. For the most part it’s worked out well. SR: Lyn Bowtell nominated you as our guest. Lyn said when you two were growing up, you used to ride your bike a long way to visit her – but the first thing that you’d do is stop in the bakery fridge to sneak something. Duncan: (Laughs) Her Dad was pretty good at makin’ all sorts of goodies. I can’t re- member how long it used to take me to ride out there. I used to ride from the middle Inside this issue of Toowoomba to a place called Meringandan. About half way there was an angry, horrible dog that used to chase me. Other than that it was a pretty cruisy ride, a few The V.I.P. Lounge - Connued .......... 2,6 hills here and there.

There’s actually talk of him coming out to Tamworth and doing some gigs with us (The Adam Eckersley Band ). We were over in Nash- ville last year, and Adam (Eckersley) did some song writing with his keyboard player - his name escapes me at the moment. I probably shouldn’t be telling you about this (laughs). If Johnny Hiland comes out, I know there will be a lot of guitarists wanting to see him play. Who knows, he may even do some touring. Anyway, that’s just between us - and whoever’s listening. (Whispers). It’s just our little secret . SR: Speaking of The Adam Eckersley Band . They’ve really got a nice edgy grit to their sound. That must be fun playing with them? Duncan: Yeah, I really enjoy playing with the band. I did 6 years with Adam Brand , Beccy Cole , Adam Harvey , Troy (Cassar-Daley) , and Lee (Kernaghan) here and there, Sara (Storer) and The Songbirds and all that stuff – which I really enjoyed. I’ve sort of come full circle, which has been really cool for me to experience again. Being in a band and rehearsing together, getting to know each others playing – there’s nothing like it. You can play some amazing gigs with awesome musicians and it’s great, but things happen when you get to know each others playing. Everyone starts taking a few chances because they can actually read you really well and know where you’re going with something. That’s where the magic happens. SR: That is cool, actually. These days most of your focus is on your production company Filmery . Filmery has gone from strength to strength in a relatively short length of time I guess. What is it now, 7 consecutive golden gui- tars? Duncan: I shake my head when I think about that. I can still remember shooting a video for Stuie French and Ca- mille Te Nahu with a really old crappy Sony camera. We used a 2 dollar tripod and stuck it in my young boys pram as a dolly and tracked them on the side of a bridge. That’s going back 10 or 11 years ago. I made that with a friend of mine, Glenn Wilson . Ever since then I’d found a new passion with film and music mixed together. It ig- nited a passion that I never knew that I had. Yeah, winning 7 in a row for ‘Music Video Of The Year’ is something that I shake my head at. I feel very lucky and very blessed. SR: So, how did you get into film production? Duncan: That was pretty much it. My wife now – Amanda , back when we were going out, she had this camera, and computers just started having video editing platforms. I started finding myself sitting up until 5 in the morning just sitting there editing. After a while I just got the bug. I’d have a bit of fun with it, and people liked watching it. The rest is history. One by one I’d have artists come to me and ask ‘Can you make a video for me?’. These days, between October last year and now, we’ve probably made about 25 videos. It’s really grown. I’ve got a team of 6 or 7 people around me. Winning 7 in a row for ‘Music Video Of The Year’ is something that I shake my head at. I feel very lucky and very blessed. SR: You’ve done some awesome clips with Sara Storer , Troy Cassar-Daley , Lee Kernaghan , and so many others. I like ‘ Piece Of Me ’ from The McClymonts – that’s a cracker. Duncan: That was heaps of fun to film with the girls. We shot that in my warehouse. I’m sure you know Rod McCormack , and Jeff McCormack ? SR: Yeah, sure. Duncan : Jeffs’ wife actually painted the walls of the warehouse with this forest effect. We brought props and actual trees in, filled it full of fog, then brought the girls in - all of a sudden we are in this magical forest; but we were really in this warehouse in West Gosford. It’s amazing what you can do with a few lights and a bit of paint (laughs). SR: It’s all smoke and mirrors (laughs). What film clip of yours is your favourite, and why? Duncan: That’s tough. They are all like my children. Like if you talk to a song writer and ask ‘What’s your fa- vourite song that you’ve written?’ You like different songs for different reasons. It’s the same for videos. People come to me with their song and say ‘What can you do with this?’ I create what I think would match. I listen to the way that a song makes me feel emotionally, and then I think if you took away the music and film something, what would give you that same emotion. And if you marry that perfectly, the music and the video unite and become more powerful than they ever could have been separately.

  • Travis Collins ‘Un-Wired’
    TRAVIS COLLINS ‘UN-WIRED’ with very special guests CAITLYN SHADBOLT & MICKEY PYE ‘Un-Wired’ is a new approach to acoustic touring… This is front porch acoustic jamming, but amplified. Three respected artists in their own right, each a talented multi-instrumentalist, playing their own hits but also leaning on a handful of country music’s biggest hits to create a show like no other. ‘Un-Wired’ is a celebration of the roots of music and song in the rawest and most sincere form - Acoustic. The show swings effortlessly and comfortably between moments of power and energy, to intimate and personal, funny and charismatic. This show has a depth well beyond just the three individual performers alone. Australian country music star Travis Collins is no stranger to success, his latest offering ‘Wired’ debuted at #1 on the ARIA country albums chart, and placed at #23 in the all-genre chart. The lead single ‘Curves’ set a new record with a whopping 10 weeks (9 consecutive) at #1 on the national airplay chart. He is a multiple Golden Guitar, ACE, MO, and CMC award finalist. With a string of #1’s under his belt already and a decade of winning fans all over whilst touring with some of the industry heavyweights, Travis now turns his attention to his own tour. “The album ‘Wired’ is all about connecting with people, stripping back all the layers of blur and just honestly singing my life - their life. It’s about feeling togetherness, as if ‘wired’ through music and proud of where we come from. When I think about touring this album, I want it to feel exactly that way live too… strangely enough, that meant stripping it all back again, but in a different way… the show, the tour, had to be ‘Un-Wired’ .
