Release Our Love, 2019
As a proud and passionate Cantabrian and New Zealander, I was extremely shocked and saddened by what has happened here in Christchurch on March 15, 2019.
In the days following that Friday, I wrote a song called RELEASE OUR LOVE as a token of my love for the innocent people that died and to the survivors and their families.
I decided to release this song as a way of saying we must continue the conversations and move forward stronger, determined, more loving - so that we may never forget.
