From their self-produced debut EP Noctua (out September 11), Sparrow is the second single to drop from emerging indie pop duo, We Are The Brave.

Comprised of singer-songwriter Jess Chalker (her vocals can be heard on recordings by Passenger) and underground hip-hop producer, Ox Why, We Are The Brave has started to gain momentum since bursting onto the scene earlier this year. Garnering community airplay across the country with first single, All Good Things Must Come to an End, positive reviews from international and local blogs have consistently praised the pair’s sound, with major Australian blog the AU Review calling the track "a cracker of a first release."

Inferences to Bat for Lashes or Tears for Fears seem obvious. But akin to All Good Things, Sparrow features the pair’s distinctive, swirly, ‘80s-feel production, with layers of analog synths adding to the drama of Chalker’s moody vocals, and accompanying Thelma and Louise-type imagery.

Sydneysiders can catch a preview live performance of Sparrow when We Are The Brave launches their debut EP, Noctua in Canberra and Melbourne this week. www.wearethebrave.com for more info

Sparrow - we are the brave (ft Jess Chalker)

A little tribute to the "true north strong and free". 

Lyrics: 
We've seen the spectre
A demon dressed in white
bring the illness and the cure
A twisted mind
To twist in kind
The fertile mind of the unsure
From a whisper our voices start to rise
More than ever before
Too much at stake now we can't compromise
We join our hearts from shore to shore

We are Canada
We know right from wrong
We believe we're all meant to be free
That's why we are standing strong

Woman to woman
Man to man
We begin to open up our eyes
Seek the truth now
In each other
See beyond the lies
True hearts of the true north strong and free
Raise the flag and sound the call
Stand for freedom. Stand for love
Stand for the one and for the all

We are Canada
We know right from wrong
We believe we're all meant to be free
That's why we are standing strong

My Little Dove
