About this blog

Rebel Zen is a personal blog run by me, Seamus Anthony.

I am a musician from Melbourne, Australia.

Topics I touch in this blog:

• Music and everything about being a musician.
• Meaning: the search for it and how to deal with its (often) apparent absence.
• Meditation
• Achieving inner-peace AND worldly success – and the tension that often exists between the two needs.
• Whatever the hell else I feel like writing about.

If “Rebel Zen” as a phrase means anything at all (which it probably doesn’t – it just sounds cool), then it’s about the dynamic interplay between our need to gratify our desires to kick-butt and our quieter needs for peace and fulfillment of a more ‘spiritual nature” (although I hate the word spiritual as to me it implies fluffy ideas like “souls” which I am not entirely convinced exist, not as they are commonly understood anyway).

It’s also sometimes, but not often, about that Greek fried cheese dish with a name that sounds to me like a Japanese word – God, I love that shit.

Why not subscribe so you don’t miss out on all the mind-blowing awesomeness?

Also would love you to go download some of my music for free.
