New Single “Your Country”

Live Shows Announced

Australian singer-songwriter William Crighton unveils a strident and powerful new single “Your Country”, his first new music in two years and a taste of his highly-anticipated third studio album, due for release in 2021.

To celebrate the release, Crighton adds dates to his tour across New South Wales through September and October. The tour will see William strip back his live show for a series of raw, intimate solo performances.

Recorded with ARIA Award-winner William Barton on didgeridoo, “Your Country” gives an angry voice demanding a response.

Recorded at Christian Pyle’s Byron Bay studio and produced by Crighton’s long-time collaborator Matt Sherrod (Crowded House, Beck), who also plays drums on the track, “Your Country” pulls no punches.

“The land is just being sold off, killed, poisoned, damaged,” says Crighton.

“The water’s being auctioned to the highest bidder or poisoned, the land’s being cleared constantly. I think everyone knows in their gut that it’s time for real change. We live on a special planet, obviously it’s our only home. It doesn’t belong to us, we belong to it. We have a responsibility to country, each and every one of us.”
