It’s a video that feels both nostalgic and all too timely as so. The dreamy clip shows a woman skateboarding along the breathtaking coastline of Portugal, moving through beaches, forests and stunning clifftops. It’s funny how as time goes on things become real and questions get answered. Xavier Rudd has dropped his new single, ‘Stoney Creek’, and it’s safe to say its accompanying music video is one for the ages. I remember that song was with me in the jungle and I didn’t know what the connection was then.
“I worked with a shaman in Peru and I actually saw her face in a vision, two years before I actually met her, which was pretty far out. I know that sounds pretty cliche and simple, but to me it’s really deep. That song became the song that I finished and wrote about her and sang at our wedding. “On a personal level she was this blessing that came along from the universe and there were so many questions answered and so many. “At the end of a cycle I’d been going through, spiritually, my new wife appeared,” he recalls of a moment when he visited a shaman in Peru. It became a personal mantra, a song with which he would soothe himself by. In tough times Rudd would return to an unformed song that he would play on his chatarungui, a 20-stringed Indian slide guitar, an “emotional, eerie and beautiful instrument”. I’ll wait until something happens in my life that affects me emotionally or comes through me spiritually, where that piece is perfect and I’ll turn it into a song.”Ī case in point from the new album is the song True Love, a song that fermented both spirituality and in reality over the course of 10 years. If there’s a story or mood that suits the music then I’ll write the lyrics.

Camera Icon Rudd’s new album, Storm Boy, features some songs that go back a decade. Like I may have an outline of a song that I won’t finish lyrically until it presents itself. “So there’s some that I always knew that were special ones, but the songs decide when they take shape completely. “There were songs I wasn’t ready to bring to the world yet,” he notes. But with Storm Boy it’s all back to the one-man-band, with some songs going back a decade. Rudd did in fact release a reggae album with a multi-musician side-project, United Nations, in 2015. It seems to be every four or five years that I’ll make an album.”

I store it in my head and when it gets sort of full I just dump it down. So I don’t have any trouble writing music, it sort of works in a way that music has poured out of me over the years also like a journal of life. I don’t plan it, but it’s always spilt out of me since I was a little kid. In saying that, I’ve always been an artist who writes a lot of music. “I’ve never had to,” he notes, “the music business part has never affected me because I’ve always independently owned my recordings.
