Stereo Stories is music and memoir,  narrative and melody, story and song.

 Take a song, a place and a time, and you may well have a Stereo Story: a short memoir inspired by a piece of music: pop, country, jazz, rock, punk, classical, electro, disco…

The website began in 2013. We published our 500th story in April 2020.

We love good words. If you have some, send us a story.

Our first concert was in mid-2014. A unique creative collaboration, Stereo Stories In Concert features writers narrating their stories about songs, accompanied –at various points in the story – by musicians playing those songs. We perform at writers’ festivals, house concerts, and elsewhere.

Many thanks to Stephen Andrew, Peter Maskell, Gina Perry,  and to The Footy Almanac’s John Harms and James Demetrie for support, encouragement and advice.

And heartfelt thanks, forever, to Julie.

Stereo Stories is produced on Woiworung country, on the territorial edge of Bunerong and Wurundjeri, in an area known as Koort Boork (‘place of the sheoaks’).
