I feel heart broken writing this post.
As you may know, Australia, the beautiful country in which myself and Peter live, is currently experiencing the most devastating bush-fire season on record. Lives have been lost, hundreds of homes have been destroyed and thousands of Australia’s native animals burnt alive. The worst is not over.
I wrote this song last year during the terrible fires we were experiencing here in Southern Tasmania, but I never released it. I had intended it would be on my next album, and I guess it still will be; but in trying to work out how I could best support the current disaster relief and recovery efforts, I’m releasing it now in the hope that I can raise some money to forward to the Australian Red Cross’s bush-fire disaster relief and recovery fund, which needs as much help as it can get. Once again, I have to thank Mike Raine for his wonderful production!
If you feel you would like to help then please consider purchasing an MP3 download of the single from my website (where you can also listen to the song) – link below. All money raised will:
– Support people at evacuation centres and recovery hubs, and
– Provide emergency assistance (including cash grants to people who have lost homes in these bushfires.
Prices can be changed to the currency of your choice after adding to your cart.
Needless to say, your support is much appreciated!
Much love,
