THE WILLOW
Patsy and Dave have solidified their status as acclaimed country music artists, hailing from Melbourne and captivating audiences worldwide. Their last album, “The Willow” achieved remarkable success, debuting at #1 on the ARIA country charts. This accomplishment underscored their exceptional songwriting skills and dynamic stage presence and follows #1 ARIA status for their last album “Midnight Choir”.

The trio set about to write a beautiful ballad depicting an Australian scene of a tree representing fond memories in an ever-changing environment. The tree weeps for us all as she moves from a joyful country dream to an urban sprawl – a stoic reminder of the past and hope for the future.
