## Bio

Produced by his collaborator and artistic confidante Matt Corby, on Wash My Sorrows Away, ARIA award winning Budjerah's luminous vocals smoothly glide over the lo-fi production to elevate the track to spiritual proportions.

"Wash My Sorrows Away is my teenage heartbreak song. Everyone has tough times and we all have our own ways of dealing with sadness, and this song tells what it's like for me when I'm in those situations. If I'm ever having a tough time I like to go home and get into the ocean, whether it's surfing or just diving under for a few seconds, it helps me get out of my own head. ‘You know I try to keep myself out of mind'. It's also about wanting to be with someone in particular, someone that takes up that space in your head ‘But I still keep you inside,'" muses Budjerah.

The new song comes off the back of news of 5 x ARIA nominations – including for Best Artist, Michael Gudinski Breakthrough Artist and Best Soul/RNB Release; as well as a NIMA win for Best New Talent.

Musically, the song follows on from his gleaming, soulful single Talk feat. MAY-A – an appeal to look up, take a beat, take a breath, and reconnect with your loved ones. The track is a joyful, much-needed tonic for a world riddled with misunderstanding and miscommunication and takes a clear cue from his idols and antecedents Sam Cooke and The Clark Sisters — patron saints of clarity and honesty.

He might be young, but there's always been something wise-beyond-his-years about Budjerah. The Coodjinburra musician's debut, self-titled EP, released earlier in 2021, displayed an aptitude for the sheen and indelibility of old-school soul singers, a quality that spoke to the classic records he was raised on growing up in coastal New South Wales.

Budjerah's phenomenal run commenced in October 2020 with his acclaimed debut single Missing You, which landed the #1 most played position on triple j, and soon followed with his runaway hit single Higher, which achieved Top 30 national airplay. Budjerah performed on The Sound, Music From The Home Front, and at the AFL Dreamtime match; and collaborated with dance music superstars PNAU. He announced a partnership with Warner Records US, was named an Apple Music Up Next artist and most recently was selected as one of the artists from around the globe for #YouTubeBlack Voices Artist Class of 2022.

Budjerah's personal highlights include supporting local luminaries including The Avalanches, Thelma Plum, Jack River and Lime Cordiale, and performing to a sold out crowd in Sydney who sang along adoringly to all his songs. "It was always my dream come true to perform to hundreds of people, and now it's right in front of me," Budjerah says. It makes sense: Budjerah's music makes dreams feel like shining, tactile reality.

Stranger Love

"**Stranger Love**" is a single by Pnau and Budjerah, released throguh Etcetc Music on 28 May 2021. It was recorded in early 2021 in Byron Bay.

## Background

The music video was directed by Tyler Hinde, and posted to YouTube on 27 May. In the caption of the video, Nick Littlemore said of the collaboration:

> Meeting a young, spirited artist like Budjerah is beautiful and challenging. To encounter someone so young who already has a great handle on creativity and kindness confronts one's own insecurities. He comes across as a natural; not something one sees a lot of in this business. Whilst we come from vastly different experiences, the supernatural power of music brought us together. We wrote from the perspective of psychedelic adventuring, and wistfully met somewhere in the middle. What came together was a true PNAU happening - an interstellar banger to be enjoyed by the trippy dreamer in all of us.

## Lyrics

Lyrics
[Verse 1]

It's no ordinary world

You're unique in every way

Always in the sun

And never in the shade

[Chorus]

I can't think of a stranger love to hold yourself above another

Just 'cause you're beautiful don't make you better than the other

When you look at me, does it make you smile?

Well, tell me do you see, see past me all the while?

I can't think of a stranger love to hold yourself above another

Just 'cause you're beautiful don't make you better than the other

[Verse 2]

I'll cover you at night

Protect you from the rain

I'll give you all my time

But will you do the same?

[Chorus]

I can't think of a stranger love to hold yourself above another

Just 'cause you're beautiful don't make you better than the other

When you look at me, does it make you smile?

Well, tell me do you see, see past me all the while?

I can't think of a stranger love to hold yourself above another

Just 'cause you're beautiful don't make you better than the other

When you look at me

When you look at me

[Bridge]

Maybe I should go away

You'd be better off without me

You say, "Sorry, won't you stay?"

You figured out you care about me

[Chorus]

I can't think of a stranger love to hold yourself above another

Just 'cause you're beautiful don't make you better than the other

When you look at me, does it make you smile?

Well, tell me do you see, see past me all the while?

I can't think of a stranger love to hold yourself above another

Just 'cause you're beautiful don't make you better than the other

When you look at me

When you look at me

[Outro]

I can't think of a stranger love to hold yourself above another

## Lyrics

Lyrics
[Verse 1]

Am I lost out here?

Or am I waking up to be your man?

It's the weight you fear

Oh, I'll try my best to understand, yeah

[Chorus]

Oh, wash my sorrows away

The water's kinda warm in the evening

Take away my tears and it's healing

Wash my sorrows away

Like we were vibing at the beach in the summer

Where I can be free to recover

Oh, ooh, oh

[Verse 2]

Regretting every second I wasn't

Sharing my time with you

It doesn't matter why they're calling

You're the only thing to losе

I'm forgetting why we can't get back

It's driving mе insane

It only matters when you're calling

You're the only thing I choose

[Chorus]

Oh, wash my sorrows away

The water's kinda warm in the evening

Take away my tears and it's healing

Wash my sorrows away

Like we were vibing at the beach in the summer

Where I can be free to recover

Oh, wash my sorrows away

The water's kinda warm in the evening

Take away my tears and it's healing

(Take away my tears, yeah, yeah)

Wash my sorrows away (Oh)

Like we were vibing at the beach in the summer

Where I can be free to recover

[Outro]

You know I try

To keep myself out of mind

And you know I try

But I still keep you inside

And I try to keep myself from what's wrong

But this ain't right

How can it be right?

How can I be right?

Oh
Intro

## Song by Budjerah

"**Intro**" is an instrumental song by Budjerah, released as the lead track from his third EP, *Conversations* (2022).

He shared to *Apple Music*, "'Intro' was originally part of 'Get Down,' but we started to think of it as its own thing. It's like a mysterious way to start without revealing a whole song straightaway."
Budjerah (Live at Rainbow Valley)

***Budjerah (Live at Rainbow Valley)*** is the second EP by Budjerah, co-written and produced by Matt Corby. It was recorded at Corby's Rainbow Valley studio.

Budjerah told in an interview, "I love live music, so the original idea for this project was just do a live version of "Missing You" and have Matt Corby be a feature. But I started to think more on it and I thought, 'Why don't we do the whole EP and get a different person to feature on each song?'" It contains collaborations from the several artists, Ainslie Wills, JK-47, Ngaiire and Stevan.
