I was the co-writer and singer of “By the Boab Tree” from Baz Luhrmann’s 2008 film “Australia”. The song was shortlisted for an Academy Award in 2009, and was nominated for several other national and international awards, including an APRA-AGSC Screen Music Award, and a Satellite Award in the US.

An absolutely beautiful and mesmerizing arrangement/vocal performance! I just discovered this song after hearing it at the beginning of the credits of the movie “Australia.” Yea, I know, a few years late. 🙂 I just had to find who sang this, I love your voice and music style. I’m glad I discovered your work and am looking forward to hearing more.
Words cannot express my thankfulness for this song… i am a fighter in Ukraine. I go home in mid-October.. we held Kyiv, Kharkiv.. thru it all – what a story.. a song to light the darkest night. Via Fidei.Thank you Angela.
