In "Freedom," Angus Woodhead, the talented vocalist and keyboard player hailing from Queensland, Australia, delivers a modern country anthem that embodies the spirit of exploration and the joy of newfound connections. Written six years ago in the picturesque landscapes of Queensland, the song was brought to life by the collaborative efforts of Angus, David, and Misha. Recently, with the lyrical finesse of Peggy Barr, the song has been given new life, resonating with a positive and gospel message that uplifts the soul.

The captivating allure of "Freedom" lies in its modern country edge, masterfully infused with gospel elements that add a soul-stirring depth to the track.

The harmonies in "Freedom" are nothing short of wonderful, skillfully weaving a tapestry of voices that blend seamlessly, enhancing the song's emotional impact. Each note seems to lift the spirit and invite the listener on a journey of self-discovery and newfound freedom.

The heartfelt lyrics, tweaked and polished by Peggy Barr, carry a universal message of liberation and adventure. The song beautifully captures the exhilarating feeling of hitting the open road, embarking on a journey filled with the promise of new encounters and unforgettable experiences. It's a celebration of breaking free from the confines of everyday life, embracing the unknown, and forging meaningful connections with fellow travelers along the way.

The production of "Freedom" showcases Woodhead's skillful prowess, having not only produced the song but also recorded and mixed it at Glasshouse Studios Australia. The seamless blending of piano, organ, and synthesizers creates a lush sonic landscape, perfectly complementing the heartfelt vocals and rich harmonies.

The song's mastering, expertly handled by Andrew Mendelson at Georgetown Masters, adds the finishing touch, elevating "Freedom" to a level of sonic excellence that captivates the listener's ears.
