We had the pleasure of interviewing Budjerah over Zoom video!
Ahead of his first international tour this month, Budjerah reveals the moody official video for his latest single “Get Down”. The track is featured on his second EP Conversations, out now via Warner Records.
On “Get Down,” producer Matt Corby’s sparkling, glitched-out synths give way to one of Conversations’ most affecting songs, a sleek jam whose ebb-and-flow melody underscores lyrics about anxiously forging forward through one’s youth. “’Get Down’ is about the idea that I’ve come so far now, I have to keep going, it’s too late to stop what I’m doing now,” Budjerah says. “If there’s a way, please show me how,” he sings on the track, a spiritual plea amidst a song suffused with an ultramodern atmosphere.
On the recently released Conversations EP, Budjerah reunites with longtime producers Matt Corby and Chris Collins, as well as new collaborators MAY-A and Konstantin Kersting. The EP - which features previously released singles “Talk” with MAY-A, “Wash My Sorrows Away” and “What Should I Do?” - reveals a darker, sleeker sound for Budjerah, reflective of the changes that have occurred in his life.
In 2020, Australia was introduced to the spectacular voice of Budjerah: a new, homegrown R&B star. Possessing songwriting ingenuity and old-soul wisdom, it quickly became abundantly clear that, for a lot of us, Budjerah was the kind of figure we’d been missing.
His acclaimed debut self-titled EP followed in 2021, he took home the Michael Gudinski Breakthrough Artist ARIA award from five nominations; performed coveted support slots with Thelma Plum, The Avalanches and Lime Cordiale, collaborated with dance music superstars PNAU and completed his first headline tour. Most recently, Budjerah won Most Performed R&B / Soul Work for “Higher” and was nominated for Breakthrough Songwriter of the Year at the 2022 APRA Music Awards.
