This is a very bitter break-up song from the perspective of the woman. Wade overheard the opening line, late one night on the streets of The Valley in Brisbane. 

Dancin' Alone

The story of how Luke believed his bedroom to be haunted by the previous tenant. He would periodically wake up in the middle of the night, seemingly wide awake but unable to move or speak.
Sure it could have been due to what he had consumed that evening, but he believes it to be true.

Each band member comes from good stock. This one is for our fathers. Bloody ripping harmonies! 

Under Blackened Skies

For our friends: the good, the bad, the ugly and the dickheads (amongst whom we often count ourselves). And we love them all just the same, in equal measure. 

All My Friends

A simple song about a not-so-simple family. One of the first songs we wrote together. In many ways, this song pretty much sets the scene in terms of the album’s major themes, and it has one of our favourite opening lines. 

Wade once read an interview with someone – it might have been Grant McLennan or Robert Forster, talking about Nick Cave – and they spoke about the importance of a strong opening line to a song, and that has been the ambition ever since. 

Keep it in the Family

Alive & Well

Holy Moses Heartache have spent the past decade crafting a soulfully swampish mix of cosmic-country-funk-folk-rock with a dash of irreverent humour. While they profess to enjoying Pina Coladas, getting caught in the rain and long walks on the beach, it's their musical concoctions that truly steal the spotlight. Whether you're a cosmic-country convert, a folk-funk aficionado, or just someone on the lookout for music that transcends time and trends, Holy Moses Heartache invites you to join them on their musical escapades.
