Andy Penkow – Ghostly Gums (Walking Away)

Toyota 51st Golden Guitar Awards Nomination for Bush Ballad Of The Year – Andy Penkow ‘Ghostly Gums (Walking Away).

Andy Shows his diversity with a more traditional style after a Stella few years, 4 #1 singles, a #3 album on the Australian Country ARIA Charts with Love, Lies & Dirty Dishes.

I was given these amazing lyrics from Kath Stewart and I wanted to pay tribute to the traditional style in which they were written. I composed 2 versions of the song. This version was produced by Lindsay Waddington who I thought of right away, I wanted a producer that understood bush ballads.

Chatting with Lindsay about how inspired I was after watching “Slim and I asked Lindsay how Slim would approach a song like this.

It was a tribute to a legend. It was written for the farmers who have struggled, and are still struggling. They are the backbone of this great nation. And we often forget that.

Andy Penkow’s album, “Love, Lies and Dirty Dishes” is available Now.
