The pop music artist from Perth O’Neill Fernandes has released the sixth part of this Australian Music project and it is also his 39th album titled, ‘My Island Home’.
Releasing the sixth part of the project of Australian music, O’Neill Fernandes once again pays tribute to Australian bands and artists through the album ‘My Island Home’. The heart-touching album presents a concoction of the artist’s immaculate musical taste and includes tracks that represent seven decades of Australian music legacy, from 1966 to 2022. What stands out about the album is its inclusivity when it comes to the target audience, as listeners from a wide array of age groups can find something they like from this treasure trove.
From songs like The Seekers’s ‘Georgy Girl’ from the 60’s to Dean Lewis’s ‘Hurtless’ from 2022, the artist has acknowledged some of the major hits of these eras and those in between. The album ‘My Island Home’ title track was originally performed by the ‘Warumpi Band’ and was recorded in 1986. In each track, the pop music artist from Perth infuses an optimism and vigor that is almost infectious. The masterful use of heavy synths and electronic elements like the guitar gives the tracks a contemporary makeover while keeping intact the essence of the original tracks. It is this quality that makes it so appealing to all age groups.
