Michael Fix and Mark Cryle join forces, creating a unique musical perspective on Australian history. People and events are bought to life in song; whether singing of the Aboriginal fast bowler Eddie Gilbert, the larrikin gangs of early twentieth century Sydney or growing up in the shadow of Port Kembla’s foreboding copper smelting stack.

Both Mark and Michael are passionate about keeping Australia’s chequered history alive - the good, the bad and the ugly - revealed through a catalogue of important original songs.

The result is a powerful insight into the thoughts and feelings of the people involved, as well as a unique and fresh understanding of the events themselves.

Bending Air starts in familiar fashion - the first 4 tracks are bright, bouncy, and very much in the Chet Atkins influenced sunny fingerstyle...but then the album turns decidedly darker with the war-themed 'Guernica'.The following tracks stay in a sombre mode, but things start to cheer up with a medley of 3 Australian traditional tunes. As always, there are some cover arrangements. The Beatles epic 'A Day in the Life' with the Winterbreak Music Camp guitar group re-creating the orchestral cacophany.Some special guests feature too: gorgeous harmonies on 'Poetic Justice' by Christine Collister, BV's and flute by Brisbane's own Sarah Calderwood. Two of Michael's sons - Adrian, and Joshua - also feature on Cajon, and Bongos.

Released to coincide with their 2015 Europe tour, this father & son debut features wonderful acoustic guitar & percussion interplay on audience favourites from live shows.  For the first time, in 2015 Michael took his son Adrian on tour. At 23, Adrian, a talented drummer and guitarist, has made a transition from the drum kit to percussion, complementing Michael's acoustic guitar with cajon, stomp box, and hand percussion, to create a warm and organic accompaniment.A naturally gifted musician, Adrian enhances Michael's incredibly broad repertoire with solid, yet subtle grooves. African-inspired beats, right through to popular classical, are represented on this debut duet CD.

Lines & Spaces is Michael Fix’s fourteenth CD release, and emphatically shows why he has become such an in-demand concert artist, touring Europe every year and winning fans from all over the world. He regards all his albums as musical snapshots of a point in time in his life, recording the highs (travels, new rhythmic discoveries), simple pleasures (a child’s smile, birdsong, a storm passing) and lows (loss of a friend, missing family, loss of childhood), and by sharing these universal emotions and experiences, Michael has been able to touch listeners on a very deep and personal level.

Learn how to add feeling and expression to your playing! The book features transcriptions and TAB of three of Michael's popular ballads: Promise, Martina, and Thinking of Home.

The DVD features performances of these, with clear explanations and tips. In English & German "A beautiful ballad, more than any other musical form, has the ability to touch people in the heart. A simple melody with few well-placed notes played with passion and feeling can bring a tear to the eye of a listener. Performing ballads on guitar often doesn't take great technical skill; the ballads in this book are very simple tunes, no flashy runs, not so many notes, but lots of spaces between the notes…and it's in these spaces that the real music lies."

Fifteen tracks cover a wide range of emotions and styles, and throughout, there is the spontaneity and joy of friends engaging in musical conversations. "Recording this album has been a total delight for me – sitting face to face with some of my favourite guitar players. My intention was to make each track a musical conversation – swapping lead lines, playing harmony lines, counter-melodies, back and forth like two people chatting. I truly hope you enjoy the dialogue."
