“Bush Kids Don’t Do Well in the City” is a raw, heartfelt track from country artist Victoria Crosby, written about her own experience with bullying and the mental health battles that followed after moving from the bush to a city high school.
Victoria proudly serves as an ambassador for Corrine’s One More Light Foundation, created in honour of 13-year-old Corrine Lee Cheu, who tragically took her own life after relentless bullying. The foundation works to raise awareness and spread hope through signage and support in schools, shops, skateparks and beyond.
Released to coincide with World Suicide Prevention Day (Sept 10), this song is Victoria’s way of saying: speak up, reach out-and don’t let the bastards win.
