5x CMAA Golden Guitar Winner, Ashleigh Dallas shares her latest single, Whistle On The Wind, from her award-winning ‘Traditional Country Album of the Year’, In The Moment.
Ashleigh says, "Written with my drummer and very good mate Adam McCann, Whistle On The Wind was written from the perspective of a loved one who is no longer physically here on earth, but spiritually is around watching their partner be weighed down in grief, lose the sparkle of life in their eye, not enjoy any of the things they once did all while thinking that they have a brave face to the world as if there is nothing wrong at all."
"After losing really close family members as an adult and seeing the evident effects it has, how darkening grief can really change the way of a person, I hope this song can bring some closure and amongst the sadness of navigating life without someone’s physical being, that we do things to celebrate and remember them as their spirit is always with us, the like the whistle on the wind," she adds.
The music video, which premieres today exclusively on Countrytown, was shot in one take near Newcastle by Jay Seeney from Blacklist Productions. Watch the video below!
Whistle On The Wind follows her previous singles from In The Moment: The Moon, Couldn’t Keep Up, Lottery, Sunshine and Good & Bad Days.
