After The Fire Charity CD for Victorian Bushfire Victims

So you picked up Bushfire Aid, saw Sound Relief, but still want to do more to help the victims of Victoria’s horrific bushfires? A new compilation CD can help you do just that.

After the Fire features acoustic performances by some of Australia’s most amazing musicians. Each artist had just an hour to record their track, adding to the CD’s spontaneous and honest feel. Most were captured after just the first or second take.

Many of the songs were penned exclusively for the recording. Others, like Renee Geyer’s “Dedicated (To the One I Love)” are old favourites.

This is an album full of stories. Brian Mannix wrote his song “All I Know” just moments before laying it down. Chocolate Starfish reformed for just one hour to take part. And little known singer-songwriter Ross Buchanan, a survivor of the Kinglake bushfire, contributed “Salty Tears,” a song written just after his ordeal.

All money raised from the sale of After the Fire will go to the St Vincent De Paul Society of Victoria’s Bushfire survivor’s relief fund. You can get your copy from the After the Fire MySpace page.
