Compiled in support of wildlife park rangers alongside the Thin Green Line Foundation, Greenline Grooves is an all-Australian. star-studded compilation in support of the rising issue surrounding the protectors of nature in developing countries.
The fudraiser CD package, which is made of entirely recycled cardboard, features tracks from Gotye, Mia Dyson, John Butler Trio, Jordie Lane, Ash Grunwald, Xavier Rudd, and more.
All songs are supplied by the artists 100% royalty free with all record company, distribution, and most retail profits going to the foundation.
It features folky numbers from Tinpanorange, Claire Bowditch, and Tex Perkins, with the latter offering the beautifully short ‘One More For The Song’ an exclusive new song for the album.
Buried amongst more regularly known tracks like Gotye’s ‘Eyes Wide Open’ and Archie Roach’s ‘Wash My Soul In The River’s Flow’, we find some hidden gems including Tash Parker’s ‘Not Prepared,’ a cute ditty about a girl in love.
The 21-track offering is a rich reflection of Australia’s most promising new artists nestled amongst more legendary acts, each rallying together to support the cause.
Greenline Grooves and the Thin Red Line Foundation are seeking to raise awareness of the obsticles faced by park rangers in many developing nations. These rangers are regularly faced with dangers including active tracking by poachers who see the rangers as a threat to their game.
The folk-dominated compilation is a nice slice of tunes from talented and bold performers that also supports a very important cause.
