songsmith releases new single
‘SIREN’
+ Announces upcoming
album release

Brisbane based artist John Drake has just released his new track ‘Siren’, which premiered exclusively via The AU Review.

“Siren was inspired by a brief relationship I had in London several years back that was built on quicksand, always in a state of flux. It was a constant tightrope walk, one day it was blissful the next it was like being chained to a sinking ship. I never knew where I was, but it was addictive, exhilarating and painful all at the same time.”

Drake recorded the single with ARIA-winning engineer Cody McWaters and longtime friend/producer Chass Guthrie. ‘Siren’ is the second offering from his upcoming debut album ‘Separation Songs’.
Drake crafts cinematic songs merging classic melodies, Rock n Roll poetry with tinges of Soul and Country. He draws influence from the likes of Sam Fender, Bleachers, The War on Drugs, Nick Cave, Paul Kelly and Radiohead.
New single ‘Siren’ is available on all major online stores and streaming services.

“Siren has a broad, lush cinematic soundscape. The melancholy nature of the tale is nestled within some beautiful musicianship. His vocals have a clarity and honesty that is gripping, the percussion is neat and tight, and the intensity has just the right amount of light and shade. There’s elements of sweet soulful Americana threaded throughout.” Bruce Baker – The AU Review

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
