In a futile attempt to appeal to everyones better nature I'd like to say that we are truely independent and fund all of our releases out of our own hard work and own pocket. We would greatly appreciate it if you could at least consider this before torrenting and sharing copies with your friends.

Craig Westwod - Seven Songs: $5.00 Buy digital download
Written and recorded in 2009 within the depths of a cold Melbourne winter "Seven Songs" would have to be his darkest and bleakest release to date.....enjoy!

I'm an independant / unsigned artist that basically makes zip from the music I write, record and produce. I offer some of my music to anyone and everyone for download and happy to continue to do so as long as you are not making a profit from it yourself. If you happen to feel inspired to put a dollar value on my work then you can choose to donate what ever you feel my music is worth. Think of it as cyber busking!!! Eitherway there is no obligation and I'm more than happy to continue having people download and listen to my songs for free.
EDIT: Unfortunately my experiment with voluntary donations in exchange for free downloads has not been as successful as I had hoped and has forced me to change tact a little and start selling some of my digital downloads. I will however have some music still available for free download although these will be of inferior sound quality in comparison to the versions you pay for.
Again many thanks to the kind folk out there who did make donations for the free music I have provided over the past years.

customer support experience - demo v1.0 (AKA sealfinger)
Rough demo, stereo mic recording in 2004 but in my view captures what i was hearing in my head at the time.

download (free) 11.4mb / 8.3 minutes /mp3 / 2004. (right click mouse and save link / target as)
CRAIG WESTWOOD "The demo sessions"
These songs are demo's that I roughly recorded over the last 4 -5 years that never quite found a place in my other projects. In my opinion some of these are the stupidest songs I've ever written but I still can't help but like them in some perverse kinda way.
download (free) 34.0mb / 25.1 minutes / mp3 / 2007. (right click mouse and save link / target as)
Dern Rutlidge - Demo tape.
download (free) 18mb / 13.6 minutes / mp3 / 1996. (right click mouse and save link / target as)
I probably shouldn't be posting this because in my opinion this demo has two (california and when I die) of the most embarrassingly woeful songs I have ever written and recorded. I still have a fondness for skyblue though.
Dern Rutlidge - Supercone promo CD.
download (free) 52mb / 38 minutes / mp3 / 1998. (right click mouse and save link / target as)
When speaking on the phone with Callan recently he reminded me of this CD that I'd forgotten about or more to the point, blocked out. I intensly dislike my vocals and some of the lyric writing from this period but also think some of the songs had promise. It contains all the songs that were actually from 2 versions of this promo CD and were regular staples from our early live shows. I figured I'd compile the lot into one complete download of 8 tracks.....an un-official album!!!
