The Two Way Street of life is brought to song in Sari Abbott’s new single, out on 8 September.
Already embraced by Apple Music and featured on Aussie country and music daily playlists, the song is sure to strike a chord with listeners.
The Sunshine Coast artist co-wrote Two Way Street with 2022 Toyota Star Maker Max Jackson, while attending The CMAA Academy of Country Music senior course in Tamworth in January this year.
“The whole idea of Two Way Street is to acknowledge that sometimes you need to take the plunge and go it alone especially when relationships come to an end,” she said.
“You’ve just gotta have the courage to do your own thing”.The singer-songwriter said, as well as being about growing up on her street where she’d lived all her life until recently, the song refers to her taking to the road and sometimes having to leave people behind.
“Two Way Street also holds memories about growing up with my neighbours who I’ve known forever and having fond memories of building tree houses on a spare block of land on our street,” Sari said.
“I’m hoping other people can find inspiration from the song because it’s very relatable with most people having a treehouse, growing up with awesome neighbours, and there comes a time when you leave the nest.
“My song deals with that idea that it’s okay to be nervous about exploring new places and meeting new people, and when you leave some people behind in your life, you’re not cutting them out forever you’re just going on a journey for a little while. I want to inspire people to do what they want in life while their young and don’t hold back. I’m looking forward to hitting the open road and exploring my country while I’m young.”
Sari hits the road in October in her beloved Toyota Troopy named Bob, heading from Queensland to Victoria for Christmas before heading across the Nullabor with friends to continue on her music journey.
