If you need a little soothing this Thursday afternoon, look no further. “Move Away,” the latest single from Boorloo/Perth act Brandon Poletti, is the cure for whatever’s ailing you. His voice has such a beautiful weathered warmth to it, and the song’s chill vibes are exactly what you need as your working day’s winding down.
“Move Away reflects on the weight of the past and the fleeting nature of time,” Brandon explained. “It’s about a person who feels stuck in a town that no longer feels like home, they grapple with a sense of disillusionment and longing for change. The song captures the essence of their desire to break free from the confines of their current life, contemplating leaving town, pursuing a new job, and perhaps even adopting a new identity.”
Spotify’s already added “Move Away” to its Coffee + Chill playlist. I’m not suggesting this song’s best enjoyed with coffee, but I’m not saying you should deny yourself a cup while you listen either! Brandon will play the following shows in the coming months:
22 June 2024 – Honky Tonk Blues, Walyalup/Fremantle
5 July 2024 – The Vault Restaurant, Noongar Country/Kalamunda
19 July 2024 – Honky Tonk Blues, Walyalup/Fremantle
10 August 2024 – Honky Tonk Blues, Walyalup/Fremantle
