Brooke Harvey flies in with new single, Little Bird.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Little bird, little bird when you cry, cry, cry, are you lonesome as the sky?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bluegrass influences, alt-country, Americana and the backing vocals of Kasey Chambers, all merge in harmony on Brooke Harvey’s new single, ‘Little Bird’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The second single off ‘Home’, her forthcoming album, ‘Little Bird’ arrives in the footsteps of her debut single, ‘Southern Sky’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The NSW Mid-North Coast singer-songwriter said many of the songs from the album were written over quite an extended period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love lost, love found, the arrival of her children and the crazy Covid times, all contributed to delay her album’s release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Little Bird was written some time back and I wrote the song from a perspective of someone dying or the little bird being a metaphor of life,” she said. “I do love birds , so used them as the metaphor in the song.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brooke said ‘Little Bird’ “wrote itself very quickly” and now that she was setting it free into the world, she wanted, most of all, for listeners to enjoy it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I would love listeners to get something from it on an emotional level and, of course, for people to enjoy my music when they hear it,” she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This will be final single before the release of ‘Home’, Brooke’s album, in May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I believe ‘Southern Sky’ and now ‘Little Bird’ are indicative of the sound of the album as all the songs are in that vein: they’ve got quite a traditional country feel. I didn’t particularly target a ‘sound, it just kind of fit,” she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The feel of the songs is no surprise, as the Bulahdelah artist is heavily influenced by Lucinda Williams, Lori McKenna, and Justin Townes Earl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I love all music, but my style has always remained country singer-songwriter and Americana vibe and bluegrass – those traditional styles.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
