Von Sharp is the creative project from Queenslander Stu Galligan, a gentleman who at 40 decided that more than anything, he wanted to make music. After a couple of decades building a more conventional career, the artistic impulse reached fever pitch and Von Sharp was born. A lover of classic dance music, the Von Sharp sound has clear elements of early trance and euro-dance. Speaking about the genesis of this project Galligan says “My first song Day Dreamer was a complete secret kept from my friends and family. It was a mammoth effort and a long way from perfect but a huge learning experience and big box ticked. When working on the follow up track Stu enlisted a pair of collaborators to lift the track to the next level. “ Erin and her husband Paul, who is a Producer, are from the US and are now living in Spain.
These guys are career musicians and are living in a beautiful part of the world, playing live music at some really stunning venues. When I first heard Erin’s voice I immediately knew where it would fit and that point in time was the beginning of Save Me. ” Stu had already written the words to Save Me “When I wrote the lyrics I was thinking of a good friend and his long time partner who had just broken up but it also applies to my own situation. The pressure that money, in-laws and you and your partners own expectation can place on a relationship throughout the course of life is sometimes too much for some couples. In this instance, it’s happily ever after.
Using his existing lyrics, Erin created a topline that fit perfectly with Stu’s track. “Erin’s vocal sound is first class and she had a hand in creating the top line melody. I really hope to see Erin perform the song to a live audience, she’s a true professional and a very experienced live performer.”
