New Single Release - Justin Landers
“A beautiful ballad sure to tug at the heartstrings. Well crafted and tender lyrics, delivered with sensitivity and compassion”
- Heather Farrell, 3HHH 96.5FM Radio Presenter
Multi-award winning, Australian independent country music artist, Justin Landers is thrilled to announce the launch of his latest single, The Weeping Red Rose. A haunting but beautiful story that rings true to Justin’s traditional approach to country music. It is sure to bring a tear to the eye. The Weeping Red Rose is Justin’s first co-write with Mudgee based TSA award winning lyricist, Kevin Pye. “When Kevin first proposed this song, I immediately attached to the concept, as loss in my family was still fresh and raw” Justin explained. “Kevin and I worked extensively on this song to capture the pure emotion and grief of losing a life long partner“ he said. Kevin often finds inspiration from the recollections and experiences of our seniors. “Although some stories border on melancholia, they deserve to be recorded to stir our emotions” he said.
Produced and recorded by Simon Johnson at Hillbilly Hut Records, The Weeping Red Rose tells the story of a graveside widow recounting the moments spent with her life long partner as she herself contemplates her future without him.
Although a sad story, the song evokes some positivity in the sense that life must go on and that memories are precious and personal and will forever be contained in the hearts of the loved ones left behind. The Weeping Red Rose is a stand alone single and is Justin’s first release since the success of his last multi-award winning album - Free Time and Money.
Justin’s new single, The Weeping Red Rose will hit the airwaves on Friday 22nd March 2024. Be sure to request it on your favourite radio station!
The Weeping Red Rose will be available on all digital media stores from Friday 5th April 2024.
