The Journey
The Call of the Pilbara
Two boys from opposite ends of the Earth—Bristol and Dampier—separately fall under the spell of Western Australia’s remote, rugged, and red-earthed Pilbara region.
The Mugshots & The LNG Boom
Fate brings David Morgan and Steven Spouse together in a Karratha restaurant in 1987, forming a popular pub-rock cover band playing for local construction workers.
The Rebirth as Mesa Band
Driven by a deep need to capture the unique culture and mystical beauty of the Pilbara, the duo shifts from playing covers to writing original music, officially renaming themselves after the region's flat-topped hills.
Nor West Friends
In 2006, the band records their debut album, a powerful musical journey reflecting the friendships, cyclones, and hardships of the Pilbara, featuring legendary Australian session musicians.
Hello Vietnam
Finding a new passion in Southeast Asia, David Morgan expands the band's horizons in 2013 by recording songs that blend Western music with traditional Vietnamese instruments to promote tourism.
Forever We Will Run
The global success of a custom anthem written for the Vietnam Swans Aussie Rules football team inspires the band to create a poignant, long-form YouTube story project.
The Long Road Home
Returning to their roots, the band collaborates between Perth and Sydney to release their 2016 album Long Road, a project that blends fresh Pilbara inspiration with a nostalgic nod to Morgan's English upbringing.
