Glenn Shorrock remakes classic with his friends for Men’s Mental Health

Little River Band legend Glenn Shorrock has remade his classic ‘Help Is On Its Way’ with a stack of his friends to raise awareness of Men’s Mental Health issues.

The new version features Wendy Matthews, The McClymonts, Beccy Cole, Jasmine Rae, Travis Collins, Busby Marou and Fanny Lumsden. The single was produced by Katie Noonan and Michael Tan. The money raised from the song will support Roses in the Ocean (www.rosesintheocean.com.au)

“I am proud that a song like ‘Help Is On Its Way’ continues to resonate in 2019 and to have it bring hope and be a rallying cry for such an important public health issue is humbling for me as a songwriter,” said Glenn Shorrock. “To be singing a song that’s been such an important part of my life, backed up by thousands of choristers is going to be an experience for all of us that we won’t forget.”

A Help Is On Its Way benefit concert will happen in Brisbane on 27 July. “I truly believe that anyone with a voice can sing,” said Katie Noonan. “Help Is On Its Way is an example of the role music can play in giving awareness to important issues in our society. Through collective experiences like singing together, we can bring communities closer, building empathy, friendship and a shared understanding and support for one another. This charity single gives us another simple yet tangible way to show support – you can buy the single and know that all the funds raised will go to an awesome charity who are doing vital work in our communities.”

I could go to a James Taylor show just for the stories. The man is a part of music history and is still around to tell the tales of how it all began. Like, for instance, being the first artist signed to Apple Records. James “auditioned” for Apple with his song ‘Something In The Way She Moves’. "Paul went away and started the label and George went away and wrote the song”, he said.
