the new demo from this month is taking shape and is currently my first song this year which is well under five minutes long.. that might change between now and the end of april though 😬

i did a little acoustic version of part time lover & i will be happy and hopefully you will be too for this months ‘outside / inside’ from this beautiful villa in bali 🇮🇩


This song was a little harder to write than the first two and the video took so many more days to come together but I love this song and am so happy there was a piano and an organ out at Possum Park Miles Qld that I could use during the month. I think it’s one of my favourite songs I have ever written.

Massive thanks to David and Julie for letting me do my thing at Possum Park this month.

I’m not really sure where this song came from, but there have been many conversations over the last year or so with strangers, fans and also people close to me which have made me realise more and more that every single person goes through some pretty rough times at different stages in our lives.

I don’t know anyone who hasn’t been through horribly low moments at some point and felt completely lost and alone and found it impossible to find a way forward.

This song is for all of us who have been there and for anyone who is there right now. In the middle of the storm, find the strength to carry on and come on home.

i’ve been staying out at Possum Park Miles Qld this month. it’s a pretty unique place that i’ve been visiting since i was a kid. you can sleep in underground bunkers, train carriages, cabins or bring a caravan or tent.

i picked up some postcards from resident artist Chris Osborne Art and i thought i’d send a few out to anyone who wants a card from me in the mail. just send a little email with your address to hello@stularsen.com and i’ll choose a few to send out before i leave australia.

ps the new song from this month is almost ready to share, i’ll try have it online before midnight on the last day of march

Sometimes I get high on life or love and I disappear into some kind of emotional Xanadu for a while. I love these seasons. Where everything is possible. And anything can happen. And then, for whatever reason, it’s gone. It’s hard to come down from that high place. I’m still working on it. 

This new demo is a sad one. But it’s beautiful. (I promise to write at least one happy song this year…)

Here is February’s song with random footage taken at and around High Place Cottage in Tasmania.
