Talking to Adam Harvey

Adam Harvey - Both Sides NowGeelong born country music singer Adam Harvey has worked as a truckie and a goldminer. Since those days he’s certainly struck gold with a swag of golden guitar awards.

His amazing voice was on display for a wider audience when he took part in Channel 7’s It Takes Two in 2008.

Adam has achieved one of country music’s ultimate dreams by performing at the Grand Ole Opry, yet he’s still a very down to earth person. He even dropped in to his local primary school a couple of months back to sing Christmas carols.

He’s travelled west this week to take part in tomorrow’s Hope from Ashes Toodyay Benefit Concert and he joined me in the studio this morning as part of my programme on 98.5 Sonshine FM. It was a true delight to chat with Adam and thankfully he brought his guitar to perform standout acoustic versions of Stuck in the Middle and King of the Road.

In October last year Adam released an album of duets titled Both Sides Now. It features artists such as Troy Cassar-Daley, Wendy Matthews, Kasey Chambers, Shannon Noll, David Campbell, Leo Sayer, Renee Geyer, Tommy Emmanuel and Guy Sebastian.

Salvos helping fire victims

salvation_army.jpgFire can cause such devastation. Last week a huge fire near Toodyay, 85 kilometres north east of Perth, destroyed significant property including 38 houses. Thankfully no human lives were lost.

Initial assessments suggest fallen power lines caused the fire.

Dozens of families have lost everything. In the last couple of days they’ve been allowed back into the fire affected areas to see if anything remains of their homes. For many there is only heartbreak.

Thankfully the Salvos are already helping people in the area. You can help them to help others by donating online. If you’d like to show your support for those affected by the fires, click here.
