This was an emotionally difficult song to write. I hope you'll find the lyrics informative.

Passionate music dedicated to uplifting those in need.

Put The Guns Away

I wrote this solidarity song in response to the devastating July 2021 riots and destruction in my home country, South Africa. REVIEWS: “This song MUST be heard! I believe this song could be an anthem of hope for all South Africans.” - Danny Tate, award-winning songwriter. "Nicolette Aubourg pours heart and soul into a hymn of cyclic devastation and hopeful restoration in her emotionally resonant original song … a brilliant introduction to the artist's considerable and artistically conscious body of work. … striking emotional depth ... the intended message of hope and humanity promises to resonate among any person with a pulse!” - Jon Wright, Radio Airplay. “Such a heartfelt and uplifting soul-touching song.” - Wouter Kellerman, GRAMMY Award-winning flautist, composer, producer.

You'll Rise up Again (For South Africa)

This is my own 5/4 time-signature version of Joni Mitchell’s song "Woodstock", played live, guitar and vocals, with no edits or punch-ins. REVIEW: "... daring and deeply inspired. ... a brilliant tribute and subtle re-imagining of the Joni Mitchell classic. ... the bold decision to arrange the track in 5/4 is both truly courageous and rhythmically daring." - Andre Avanessian, Radio Airplay.

Woodstock (In 5/4)Live

This is a protest song about the horrendous nature of the horse racing fraternity and how it is far beyond time that it was banned. It commemorates the day on which Animal Rising sort to bring The Grand National to a close and start a conversation about our broken relationship with other animals.

The Last Grand National

(Credits below) Mahatma Gandhi stated, “The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.” After extensive research, I wrote this song as an exposé of the immense suffering of racehorses in the horse racing industry, an industry that excessively breeds, kills and replaces horses with little regard for life. The horses are pawns in a gamblers' game, forced to run in terror, exerting themselves so hard that their lungs hemorrhage, forced to run when they're knowingly injured or lame, forced to run too young, before their bones have developed enough not to break, forced to endure drugging with illegal and harmful substances, forced into trucks leading them on a long drive to abandonment or slaughter. This was a difficult song to write. I hope you’ll consider its worthiness and find the lyrics informative.

Luck Da'Artist - Put The Guns Away (EXCLUSIVE) 2014

For the 2017 #HonestyOscars, vote for “Fly Over (United We Are)” by New Nobility for best song! 

New Nobility is an Australian rock band using their growing fame to spread messages of peace and unity. Their latest hit, Fly Over, tells the listener to “imagine a time, where there’s no war and enter a place near the heart/ united we are strong…it’s time we take a stand.” The song uses catchy lyrics and melodies to make the plea for world harmony so many yearn for in an increasingly divided world.

Song Comment: The Gatekeeper Radio:
sure its long, love the intro this guy has a Great voice, as well some great big fat piano and nice chordal work and voicings, love that thick synth rolling around, big bass emanating . tasty guitar work and then it builds into a massive ballad. its a slow burn folks as the song moves through the storyline. nicely placed instrumentation. love to all

(Intro)- This song is dedicated To the Victims & Community of Aurora, Colorado, you will never be forgotten,United we Stand! 

(Verse1)- Tell me how a night, premiered to be with Friends, family and loved ones, has a tragic end, all they wanted was to see the dark knight rise, instead interrupted by a demon in disguise, Now the outcomes told, too graphic to behold, got a whole nation raising flags half Pole, looking for an answer that's really getting Old, it's time to put a stop to an unnecessary toll. 

(Pre)- So put your candles up, in air, close your eyes, say a prayer, let's come together, everywhere,stop the sadness we declare. 

(Hook)- We won't give up, we won't lose a thing, we will come together with heads bowed and pray, this won't define who we are, we won't just fade away, you can try and knock us down, but our dark nights will raise a brighter day. 

(verse2)- 12 candles for 12 life, it was suppose to be a fun night, and aurora was the name that they call, but they don't know it means the first light, it's time to take flight, Put the guns away, and let the children play, Because the sins of the father will never wash away, and as a people make our minds up, and showing love to each other before the times up. 

(Pre)- So put your candles up, in air, close your eyes, say a prayer, let's come together, everywhere,stop the sadness we declare. 

(Hook)- We won't give up, we won't lose a thing, we will come together with heads bowed and pray, this won't define who we are, we won't just fade away, you can try and knock us down, but our dark nights will raise a brighter day.

(Hook)- We won't give up, we won't lose a thing, we will come together with heads bowed and pray, this won't define who we are, we won't just fade away, you can try and knock us down, but our dark nights will raise a brighter day.
