Sometimes beautiful things are born out of the rubble of destruction. That could easily be said for Australian folk sing/songwriter Ziggy Alberts's latest single ‘THE GREAT DIVIDE’. With the heart-stopping floods that struck parts of Australia, Ziggy felt a sense of responsibility to call out to everyone that would listen, creating a relief fund to help the families effected. The events that transpired created an inspiring jolt that Ziggy need to put meaning into this latest release.
Led by soothing vocal melodies in his iconic coastal-folk style, ‘THE GREAT DIVIDE’ is a call to everyone to create community and to open their arms out to everyone out there. Our world is filled with too much blustering hatred. Ziggy’s message is to put differences aside, we all matter and we all have a place in this world. The uplifting acoustic single is gentle and overflows with an inviting positivity.
“‘THEGREAT DIVIDE’ is a song about comingback together. I wrote thissongto remind people they are essential andstarted itmany years ago, with a response to asuicide of a close family friend.Fast forward to 2022, all across the worldwe've been separated on many levels byideologies, by borders, by mandates.People, in my opinion, have been made tofeel like a problem, no matter how muchgood you try and do.People are essential.Jobs are essential. You are essential.”
