Listen "Darren Hanlon's coping songs"
Episode Synopsis
Darren Hanlon is one of Australia’s great troubadours. His music has charmed us for near on twenty years now, and he’s known as a songwriter’s songwriter; his skill at getting straight to the heart of the matter has built him a loyal following of fans and fellow muso’s alike. Daz is also one of those people who you want to pull up a pew and have a cuppa with. There’s a sense of calm that falls whenever I chat with him, and for all of these reasons I asked him to Take 5. From new friends, to unheard gems, to the songs that pull at the strings of homesick heart, this conversation is a beautiful exploration of how music saves us all.Chastity Belt - Different NowEmahoy Tsegue-Maryam Guebrou – HomesicknessThe Honeys - Against the ElementsMagnetic Fields - 100,000 FirefliesWarumpi Band - My Island Home
