| Thanks Melbourne!!! Thank you so much to everyone in Melbourne, especially the Flinders Street, Melbourne Central and Flagstaff commuters! Your generosity enabled me to stay in Melbourne and made a dream come true! Your kind words and support have also made it a much easier for me to pursue this dream...so if - no, when I make it, I'll have you all to thank!!! NEW TRACK: "AUTUMN GOLD" The rough first draft recording of "Autumn Gold", one of several songs inspired by my time busking in Melbourne is now on www.myspace.com/deanobusker for all to hear and download!!! This is a free download as a thank you to all the support and generosity everyone in Australia (especially Flinders Street Station, Melbourne!) has shown me. A polished version of this track will definitely be on my album, "Word of Mouth", to be released at the end of the year and will be entered into the UK Songwriting Contest 2009. 
GUITAR AND ACCESSORIES FOR SALE!!! As I'll be leaving Australia at the end of the month I will be selling my guitar (Takamine D Series featured below), hard case (brand new) and a capo on my last day of busking, Friday 26th June. I'm only accepting cold hard cash, and this lot is worth $600...so it's a bargain at $300!!! I'll be putting an ad on Gumtree.com and accepting any offers through this website!  Welcome
Thank you for taking the time to visit my site and find out some more about me and my work. You can contact me through this page or email me using: news@deanosaunders.co.uk
My name is Dean Saunders, "Deano" to my friends, and I am a 28 year old singer-songwriter and author from Essex, England. I used to be a gigolo in Spain, before a special lady got me on the straight and narrow...but you can read all about that in my book "Nice Work If You Can Get It"!!! 
Despite my mispent youth in Spain, I'm now happily married and pursuing my dream of becoming a professional songwriter. I'm a licenced busker in Melbourne, Australia, continuing my career as a singer-songwriter which started in 2008 as London Underground busker and a registered member of The Guild of International Songwriters & Composers.
I am currently busking my way around the world while compiling an album of songs, after having obtained three semi-finalist positions (in separate categories) in the UK Songwriting Contest 2008.
My first album, "Word of Mouth", shall be recorded and released by Christmas 2009. For those of you who've bought a copy of my book, had it signed and given me your details, I'll send you a copy of this as soon as it is ready.
It may seem like a long wait, however I guarantee it'll be worth it! Anyway, until then you can hear me for free in the street and of course there is always my book... 
Out of gift ideas for your girlfriend?
Like to ravish a racy read before bed?
Prefer to read the book before they make the film?
...THEN THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU!!!
My Raunchy Debut Book Out NOW!!!
Available in all good bookshops: Dymocks - Collins Street (Melbourne, Australia), Rundell Mall (Adelaide, Australia), Waterstones, WHSmiths, and Tesco!!! and online at PLAY.COM, Amazon.com, fishpond.com.au, booktopia.com.au) ..."Nice Work If You Can Get It", was published by John Blake Publishing last July and can be ordered now on-line or bought from most good bookshops (e.g. Dymocks - Collins Street).
