SINGER/SONGWRITER CAITLYN SHADBOLT RELEASES NEW SINGLE, HOMEMADE HONEY
Aussie country singer/songwriter, Caitlyn Shadbolt, releases her new single, “Homemade Honey”. An accomplished songwriter, Caitlyn penned the track with the equally prolific, Gavin Carfoot, who also co-produced the track. This is the follow up to her most recent single, “Where The Lemons Grow”.
Set to perform at this year’s Gympie Muster, Caitlyn describes the inspiration behind the song:
“There’s a different kinda quality in ‘homemade’. Your mum’s cooking, the playground your dad built you as a kid, the veggies you grow, the eggs you collect – you get the picture. In a world that is full of fast food and flat pack furniture, it’s nice to bring it home and focus on the good quality, long lasting stuff – made with love! This song was also tracked at my home studio (yep it was homemade) with some of my favourite good quality humans”
Cause I’m homemade honey
Yeah I’m free like the breeze in your hair
Yeah I’m homemade honey
The kinda sweet that you breathe in the air
A little like gold
Sticks in your soul
The kind you can’t find with money
I’m homemade, honey
