SKRITCH is a composer, producer and performer born in Brisbane, Australia in 1970.
He plays in countless bands including: MARY TREMBLES, THE SMOKESTACK ORCHESTRA, TEX PERKINS’ DARK HORSES, THE BEASTS OF BOURBON, GOTACOLA AND BROKEN HEAD.
SKRITCH’S musical styles vary as greatly as the roles he fulfils in each performing project. For example, take the intensity and dynamics of his constantly evolving rock band MARY TREMBLES in which he sings and plays guitar as well as penning the songs, or the versatility in his association with the seminal Australian band THE BEASTS OF BOURBON for whom he has played drums and produced and engineered their latest album “Little Animals”.
His current involvement within bands such as THE SMOKESTACK ORCHESTRA builds upon his reputation for an extreme versatility of style, developed over years of playing with and recording many of Australia’s most influential musicians.
As well as his studio and live roles for Australian bands he has worked extensively composing and producing music for film and television, both alone and in conjunction with long time collaborator CAMERON McKENZIE..
Now a very proficient multi-instrumentalist, his vast experence has shaped his musical style and led to the development of a distinct ethos that runs through every diverse project that SKRITCH takes on.
With all his composition, performance and production work he maintains a very strong ‘organic’ simplicity that time and time again results in an understated clarity of expression.
SKRITCH brings this same ethos and versatility to his roles as a producer and engineer. He has built up vast studio experience recording projects such as heavy rock bands, smooth acoustic country and diverse musical scores for film and television. His ability as a programmer is as unique as his individualistic use of more traditional recording methods illustrated in much of his instrumental work, both solo and his film scores.
