Craig Lloyd – I Call Australia Home

Following the success of Craig Lloyd’s duet with Merelyn Carter (Carter & Carter) –  ‘Little Country Store’, which reached #1 on the Australian Top 40 Country Songs chart and was added to Apples Aussie Country and ABC’s Grass Roots Playlists, Craig Lloyd releases his most personal song from his debut album “The Other Side Of Me’. Titled ‘I Call Australia Home’ – it’s quite literally the story of his life and was written with Carter & Carter.    

After moving to Australia in 2003, Craig Lloyd fell in love with Australia.

Growing up in the glare of the city lights of London, Craig saw the darker side of life as a Police Officer in some of the most crime ridden parts of this metropolis. Travelling on the London Subway (Tube), Craig spent time working at the world famous New Scotland Yard, the home of the Metropolitan Police.

A series of life-changing events led to Craig making the decision to take some for himself and take an extended break to Australia. Very quickly the draw of the ‘Aussie Way’, and the warmth and trusting nature of country people made Craig feel that he had found his home.
Living in country Victoria, a world away from the hustle-bustle of London, he fell in love with winding dirt roads, alpine mountains and the uninterrupted views of the night sky.

It didn’t take too long for Craig to call Australia Home.
The single ‘I Call Australia Home’ was written by Craig Lloyd, David Carter and Merelyn Carter
The song was produced by David Carter / Merelyn Carter / Adrian Hannan.
