nnie Higgins and musical director Luke Gerber of Mel Blue embarked on a creative journey to craft an album that was musically satisfying and gave big feels to the heart. The intention was music that could be listened to with focus, or enjoyed with friends creating the perfect mood for backyard gathering and a glass of wine. Their focus was to infuse each track with a quintessentially Australian vibe and a touch of sass, resulting in the haunting, empowering, and bittersweet "Pot of Gold," a romantic chill in G Minor.   Weaving together melodic threads of finger-picked acoustic guitar, vocals, and the horn section,

Coal Dust In Your Soul

So...this is a bit of a different song. 

It's kind of an ode -- and answer -- to Mr. Philip Larkin's poem of the same name, which I am sure you will have come across:

Although I like Larkin -- and even this poem -- and I do agree that invariably your parents do "f*** you up", there has always been something about the poem that didn't sit well with me. And I think it's the lack of agency. It's like he's blaming the parents for everything in his life -- taking no responsibility himself.  So I am trying to address (read "redress?") that a bit in the song.

It's basically a (belated) love song to my late parents. I lost my Dad 12 years ago and my Mum last year. And although I did for long periods have a fractious and strained relationship with them both, I also loved them and am grateful to them for many reasons. I like to think that I communicated that to them both whilst they were still with us, but want to again do so here, in this song.
