Listen "Meg Washington's 'oasis' songs"
Episode Synopsis
It’s been five years since Meg Washington released an album of original songs, but that time hasn’t been wasted. Starring in Bluey as Calypso, and co-writing the Paul Kelly inspired film How To Make Gravy have dominated her last little while. But now she’s back with GEM, and it’s a welcome return.When talking about the album, Meg said she conjured a treasure island while writing these songs, finding music as an oasis, and that was the catalyst for her Take 5. What she revealed, was a deep love of songwriting in an age where being a musician is harder than ever. And the music that has been a refuge, and inspiration, for her.Sade - 'No Ordinary Love'The Bangles - 'Eternal Flame'Kevin Morby - 'Harlem River'Eugenio Bennato - 'Ogni uno'The Roches - 'Hammond Song'
