Hold On To Love has been a miraculous and shared experience. Many people believed in me and helped me to create this wonderful collection of songs. It was important that this album was something extra special. I think we’ve nailed it. It has been produced by highly acclaimed producer, Matt Fell, of Love Hz studios in Sydney Australia and in Nashville USA. It is world-class production with some of the world's best musicians playing on the album. Hold On To Love is comprised of 13 original Australian country and country-folk songs: "Hold On To Me" is about my journey to find love: my children and my partner. It's all about love and never letting go. This song received a massive standing ovation at the Toyota Star Maker finals in Tamworth last year. It is very 'Roy Orbisonesque'. "In The Arms of the Widow Fig" is a haunting song about a battle between a giant water gum and a strangler fig, or maybe it is story told from the perspective of the children whose parents separated? You decide. This song is a duet with my daughter Charlotte. "Oh No, Not Another Love Song!" is a real swinging foot tapper! Loaded with musical and lyrical hooks. "The Worry Tree" is something I bet we all wished we had. One of the cutest, feel-good songs on the album. "Things I Should Be Doing" was co-written by talented poet, Manfred Vijars, Allan McMonagle and myself. It is a thought-provoking Indigenous yarn set to a haunting soundscape. Unlikely radio hit, but at the time of writing, it was sitting at no.11 on the Australian Country Tracks Chart Top 40 (and no.4 in Tasmania). "Til' the Buzzer Goes Off" likens life to a rodeo! Another fun, foot-tapper with a few positive and encouraging messages - a bit of 'cowboy philosophy'. "Man Gone Missing" is another fun, tongue-in-cheek song with an infectious beat. It was the first single to be released and entered the national country airplay charts top 40 (CMR) at a staggering no.5 in November 2015. "Beechworth Gold" is a common story of early gold-miners' fates, told from the perspective of a gold-miner's wife. Ronald Morgan wrote this song originally and we worked on it together to come up with this beautiful piece. "Sweet Ophelia" is a song I wrote for my beautiful daughter Ophelia, for her 21st birthday. "100 Droving Days" is song I wrote many years ago but has been re-incarnated for this album. It's an unusual bush-ballad/love-song hybrid. This song has already proven to be very popular and reached no.1 on the Country Tracks Chart Top 40 early in 2016. "Last and Least of All" is an old-skool cool yodelling song. It's a little sad and a little funny. When I sing this song I always imagine a forlorn runaway dog yodelling his way through his sad lament. "Water Into Wine" is a melancholy and beautiful ballad. "That's Not Love" is another foot-tapper with some awesome percussion work on the track thanks to the amazing talents of producer Matt Fell.
