Single title? Cut You Loose

What's the song about? It's sung from the point of view of the person who introduced the traitor to The Wild Colonial Boy.

How long did it take to write/record? About a week.

Is this track from a forthcoming release/existing release? The track is from the album — Red Dirt, Red Heart.

What was inspiring you during the song's writing and recording? After I had written it I was pretty happy. However, once Shannon Bourne added his guitar, I was happier.

We'll like this song if we like… If you like shuffle blues or even Rockabilly.

Do you play it differently live? No, we play it exactly the same.

When and where is your launch/next gig? 5 Jul, SS&A Club, Albury
