Feature: Xavier Rudd – Freedom Sessions
Xavier Rudd‘s first release since 2022, Freedom Sessions was created during a particularly unique period… and is a celebration of the blessing of ‘freedom’ – a simple state of being that we all should have the right to exist in. It’s been a super interesting time recording this music, through my introspective journey in the studio I have learnt, grown and released.”
The EP packages four previously released singles, ‘World Order‘, ‘High Times’, ‘Road Trippin’’ and ‘Free the People’ alongside his stunning new offering ‘Moments’.
“The last song for you to hear upon release is called ‘Moments’. This is a special song for me and the perfect way to hand the last of this music over. Our lives are made up of moments that fly by so fast but shape so much. I guess the goal is to handle our moments with truth and purpose to build solid foundations in this life.” Xavier Rudd
The past two-years have been highly eventful for Xavier, with the release of his critically acclaimed tenth studio album, Jan Jun Moon, which was rewarded with an Australian APRA awards title. He also received the Environmental Music Prize for his song ‘Stoney Creek’, donating the prize money to four grassroots environmental rights groups.
Xavier Rudd‘s new EP Freedom Sessions is available to stream now via Salt.X Records and Virgin Music Australia.
