It follows the lives of people living on farms, remote desert border towns, and in the quiet spaces between one life and the next. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIt began with the title track, ‘Long Desert Highway.’ An idea of driving through the desert, conjuring up these short creative stories of the light and dark moments living on long dirt roads away from the crowds and the quiet corners of the country. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eInspired by concept albums such as ‘Inyo’ by \u003cstrong\u003eBruce Springsteen\u003c\/strong\u003e, ‘The Party by Andy Shauf and ‘Chávez Ravine’ by \u003cstrong\u003eRy Cooder\u003c\/strong\u003e, Long Desert Highway was a chance for me to explore a type of creative writing I had not before. Where place and emotion run hand in hand through the whole record. I wanted the environment to provoke a feeling just as much as the characters give meaning to the environment. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eMost of the songs were recorded in a small cabin on a property in the Northern Rivers and Produced by \u003cstrong\u003eSam Joseph\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ePaul Pilsonic\u003c\/strong\u003e. Weaving between soft acoustic country Ballads, accompanied by pedal steel, piano to more electric ‘Aussicana’ style songs featuring guitars, organs, 80s Juno Keys and synths.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eLong Desert Highway is a journey album, where the characters remain somewhere between who they are and whoever the listener imagines them to be. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Holiday Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50891782455344,"sku":"HRDROP112","price":62.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/9269\/1726\/files\/Luke1.png?v=1793011210"}],"url":"https:\/\/holidayrecords.com\/collections\/luke-morris.oembed","provider":"Holiday Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
