More About This Release:
Gippsland born, but raised by the waves, Hazel Ray has just released her newest single. A Christmas song with a twist, Christmas From Afar, tackles some of the lonelier questions some of us face during the holidays.
Written during Melbourne's record breaking lockdowns, and after the breakdown of her marriage, Hazel Ray's raw songwriting and soulful vocals resonate with the listener on a deeper level. Her lyrics, while addressing some of the questions, remain hopeful and her voice beckons us to believe despite where we might find ourselves this year.
Songs with meaning are nothing new to Hazel, preferring to use her platform to talk about real issues and to ask real questions. It's one of the things that sets her apart, in an industry filled with good voices, she's committed to staying true to herself and her art, something her growing audience appreciates.
