Natalie Henry takes a frank measure of life after leavin’ the slow and steady comforts of her old familiar in her new single, More Than A Woman.
On the back of a comedown from the euphoria and chaos, Newcastle singer-songwriter, Natalie Henry takes a resoundingly frank measure of life after leavin’ the slow and steady comforts of her old familiar in her new single, More Than A Woman – and Countrytown has your first listen for this exclusive premiere.
Self-penned, with each line penned as though she forgot the question mark – Natalie wages that reassurance oughta come cheap as she lilts between bargaining chips feeble and anguished – herself the one not buying: “If I pray real hard and drive real fast, I won’t look back ... no, I’ll never look back”.
Natalie wrote on facebook, "More Than A Woman is gonna’ open me up and expose me like bein’ left naked in a hall of mirrors. Now, sometimes in life you’re gonna’ have thoughts and feelins’ that you’d never dare tell another ... they leave you feelin’ confused, maybe like a sin, maybe like a curse. And hell, we’re all walk-in’ around projectin’ what fits and conforms but how often are we sharin’ the shadows? What would you give to know you’re not alone? More Than A Woman is a story many women in my particular stylin’ of boots experience but bury deep."
More Than A Woman follows Natalie's previous alt-country track, Weed, Wine and Women. Both singles will appear on her recently crowd-funded forthcoming album. Raising an impressive $15,000, the album was produced by multi-award-winning singer-songwriter Catherine Britt and Michael Muchow from Moko Productions and recorded at Rocking Horse Studios in the Bryon Bay hinterland. Both music videos were directed by Jazmyn Produces.
