Hello and welcome to burgersville.com. My name is Brett Kingman but my friends call me Burger - something to do with my surname I think.
This is a temporary fill-in-the-blanks site biding time until the real masterpiece is launched.
I live in Mount Eliza with my wife Elisabeth, daughter Sadie and stepson, Tom. Mt Eliza is on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, Australia.
If you're after a formal resume, you'll find a link at the bottom of this page. Briefly though, I am a professional guitarist to whom fate has dealt a sensible hand by guiding me into the real world(!) as a Product Manager for CMI, Central Musical Instruments Australia. It's the perfect job for a bloke like me as I'm dealing with excellent guitar and amp oriented brands, travelling nationally and internationally for CMI as well as being able to use the products on the front line.
I play guitar full-time for James Reyne as well as being his current cover designer an part-time photographer. Daryl Braithwaite has also let me loose on his covers, the latest being 'Snapshot'.

At the time of writing I'm the Artistic Director of the Frankston International Guitar Festival. This is a tough job but a rewarding one.
In the past couple of years I've taught myself key graphics programs like Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, etc and these have helped and enhanced my abilities immeasurably. Recently, journalism has become a paying hobby as well. I currently write part-time for Australian Guitar, The Guitarist, Australian Musician, Rave, Mixdown and anyone else that will have me!
