about

On his latest single, 'Please Don’t Pretend', Sydney singer-songwriter Harvey Russell breathes new life into classic, country storytelling tropes. Over a freight train rhythm and tough and lively honky-tonk guitars he sings “Don't drag me into that river of lies,” as he chronicles the struggle of disentangling oneself from a soured romance. The protagonist isn’t wallowing in his sorrow though, instead he has his eyes on the horizon, moving on towards better times.
