The National przerabiają INXS

Amerykanie nagrali cover australijskiej kapeli na specjalną składankę "Songs for Australia". Inicjatorką projektu jest Julia Stone. Artystka zaprosiła do udziału w nagraniach Kurta Vile'a (przerobił Nicka Cave'a "Stranger Than Kindness"), Joan as Policewoman czy Sama Amidona.

Dochód z płyty zostanie przeznaczony na walkę ze skutkami pożarów w Australii.

The National ostatni album, "I Am Easy to Find", wydali w 2019 roku.

I´m so so happy to announce a project i´ve been working on over the last few weeks. The video/song I posted earlier of `Beds Are Burning´ got me started... inspired I reached out to artists I had a connection with. I thought we could do more, with more of us. I asked if they would cover an Australian song for an album that would raise money for the bushfire crisis. The response was immediate and immense. So many incredible artists have done astonishing versions of some classic Australian tunes. This record `Songs For Australia´ sounds AMAZING_ so grateful to @thenational @dermotkennedy @damienrice @kurtvile @joanaspolicewoman @samamidon @dansultanmusic @dopelemonmusic @paulkellyofficial @martha.wainwright @petitbiscuit @pommeofficial who all came back to me, so happy to do anything to help out down here, and have delivered unbelievably beautiful music. All money from this record will go to organisations that are doing amazing things to build a better future for Australia and also to respond to the needs during and following this period of bushfires. @firesticks.alliance.network @seedmob @wild.ark @theclimatecouncil @landcareaustralia @nswrfs Also, special thanks to @dovneon for creating this beautiful original artwork for the cover of the record (courtesy of @jennsingergallery) You can pre-order cd or vinyl at songsforaustralia.com Record will be available for streaming March 5th xx
