Earthquake Update - 6.3 Christchurch February 22nd Quake
Posted on February 25, 2026
Hey all, why does it seem that the only blog updates I make end up being about surviving earthquakes. The last entry was in September after the 7.1 quake. Myself and my family are safe here in Christchurch. We are without power or water, but have resources available to us. Our community has been wonderful and the outer community has been incredible as well.
My heartfelt sadness goes out to all those families who have lost loved ones. We are all connected and the sadness is palpable in our city.
Many people are leaving the city, some temporarily while others will never return to their homes. The enormity is still just sinking in. All the places I play my music are in shambles, the studio in which I record is in shambles, some of my musical friends have lost their homes and there is at least one known and respected muso in our community who has lost his life.
All I know, is that we'll eventually create something out of the rubble. Maybe a beautiful eco city that revolves around a sense of community giving and spirit. I truly do believe that life is beautiful, and yes it is up to each of us to make that so..
Much love to you all xoxo
