More on Stand Atlantic
The band also just released a collab version of their track “Skinny Dipping” featuring fellow Australian songwriter Alex Lahey.
Proceeds from the track will benefit the It Gets Better Project, a nonprofit with a mission to uplift, empower and connect members of the LGBTQ community all around the globe.
Vocalist Bonnie Fraser reveals the meaning behind the track.
“Skinny Dipping is about the push and pull of accepting yourself for who you are vs. how you want others to see you and catering to what you think they expect or want. In this case, I was dealing with my sexuality. Having Lahey on this track was exciting for us – I feel like we are from different music worlds and breaking those boundaries and expectations is important, and essentially what this track encompasses as a whole!”
