Louis Tillett's Home Burns...

A Suspected Arson Attack

Louis Tillett is alive, safe and as well as can be expected following a suspicious fire at his home address. Police are of course looking very seriously at this matter.

Most of his personal effects were wiped out, and much of his personal stock of CDs and Vinyls, and some of his precious Music memorabilia was lost. But most of his rare recordings, posters and Press releases from his 30 plus years of playing Music around the world, remain unscathed and salvaged from the ashes. This will be stored, along with the Master recordings already in the safe hands of the National Film and Sound Archives of Australia. And there will be a time when Louis, himself will be assisting them to catalog, curate and present this collection, as their priority to display his as a "Heritage Artist".

The Video below is TV News Footage showing some of what happened. What cannot be shown or shared is the genuine shock of such an event. In order to assist Louis in this period of recovery, there is a gofundme campaign which is open and ongoing, which WAS to assist him in his upcoming creative undertakings, but has been briefly converted into a short term relief fund.

The link, for those wishing to DONATE is here: ​https://www.gofundme.com/Album-Book-Gigs

Seeking Virtual Crew

Picture

So many of you were supportive, receptive and generous enough to allow me to achieve many of my goals in recent years, by enabling me to return to playing Live Music again, and launching "The Art Of Darkness". 

Further to this you helped me to create a "Living Archive", on behalf of the National Film and Sound Archives, which became www.louistillettmusic.com, where my entire catalog was, downloaded freely, to thank the many responsible for launching the platform.

After some time it was decided that it was necessary for me to set up the SHOP, to facilitate future recordings and to work in conjunction with other platforms (such as Spotify, iTunes and others) where all of my back catalog has now been made available.

This next phase of my personal and musical journey requires for me to apply myself wholly and solely to the purpose of creating NEW MUSIC.

And having been granted the reward and responsibility of commanding a genuine sea-going vessel, I am now called to return to the place I love most...the Ocean, which has long been the place I have derived the most inspiration from. 

Now that my Music is available widely and freely to anyone who seeks it out, I am able to free myself and embark on a journey, both physically, and metaphorically, over the horizon. And I would like to invite you to join me.

Everyone who becomes a PATRON will have full access to everything to be shared on this voyage. This means Poetry, Journals, Video Journals, Music sketches, Action Footage and any other material that forms a part of the storytelling. Varying rewards are offered for higher contributions.

But at the end of this journey, you will all be credited with the resulting creative works...such as an album, a doco, an audiobook, a written book, or anything else that is born. Most importantly I hope that this story can inspire us all. Remember - it was only 3 years or so ago that I was destitute and living in a Van. Now, all things seem possible, I feel dutybound to share this coming artistic endeavour with you, as the story unfolds.

Curse of The Ancient Mariner

"Forthwith this frame of mind was wrenched, With a woeful agony, 
Which forced me to begin my tale; And then it left me free"

Picture
Thanks to my patrons, in the past few years I have become convinced of the power of motivated people to help me make a difference, and remain active creatively, through crowdfunding,and their personal support. We have been on a shared journey that has seen me return from a long absence, away from music and life in general. 

Since 2015, there have been new concerts, new line-ups, new websites, plus my whole back catalog being shared across multiple platforms. And people were generous then - when there was very little that I had to share with them - in terms of new musical works.

And now that people have been increasingly asking, what's next and what's new...I think it is appropriate to allow them to share this next part of the journey as I document my own creative process in writing and recording some new music, whilst undertaking a major life adventure - sailing around the world, starting with Australia, where I also hope to include some concerts and some collaborations, which will also be documented, and shared privately, in the main for my Patreon supporters.

I have closed the gofundme campaigns, as all the objectives were realised. And once the website became able to stand on it's own feet, I removed the donorbox. So this is now the only way that my patrons may assist me in keeping the show on the road..as far as new projects go.

So what next? It is time to write some more music. I am inspired to write a journal, and keep a video log of my travels and to take my piano with me...to share my creative process, as I write the next album. And although I have been somewhat of a private person, I invite you to come along and gain a raw insight into my own creative process, and my own personal journey.

Your regular patronage will allow me to not only keep the vessel provisioned and running, but also provide the very equipment required to film, record and broadcast this adventure, and to create the resulting musical works. And because we have a private channel between us here, I will always be open to your suggestions and your thoughts. 

Everything will be unscripted. So you may be as much a part of the story, as I am. To become a Patron - from as little as $1/month - you will have FULL ACCESS to all broadcasted material, withing the PATREON Platform. There are other Reward levels for Higher contributions. But if I can reach 1000 to 1500 Patreons at just $1/month each...I will be able to complete my ambitious project and share the resulting creative projects, to a Global audience.

A Return To The Sea

​"Forthwith this frame of mind was wrenched,
With a woeful agony, 
Which forced me to begin my tale;
And then it left me free"
​(From The Rime of The Ancient Mariner)
"Louis begins a unique journey - of prose, of poetry, music and film - on this very personal adventure, at sea. Join this usually enigmatic man, as he explores the world of sailing, while writing an album.

You can become a patron and enjoy the experience, with exclusive video diaries, letters, and unrehearsed music. A rare insight into the mind of an underground cultural hero with an incredible story to tell."
