The Flying Emus - Its A Sunburnt Country
Review by Ayush Badhera
"It's a Sunburnt Country" by Flying Emus is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates quality Australian folk music. The album features a variety of instruments, including the mandolin, harmonica, and accordion, which all come together to create a unique sound that truly captures the essence of the Australian outback.
The band's lyrics are both heartfelt and humorous, with songs like "The Pub With No Beer" and "Waltzing Matilda" showcasing their ability to tell stories that resonate with listeners. Their cover of "I Am Australian" is particularly moving, with its message of unity and love for the country.
