Sarah Robyn Farrell has love in her heart!
Sarah Robyn Farrell is many things – a musician, an eco-communicator, a writer, and an activist.
Her debut single, ‘Love in our Hearts’, certainly aims to heal the world from its many issues in the most simple and honest way.
Armed with a ukulele and a strong will to use her voice for good, Sarah explains the motivation behind this, her first single:
"Love in our hearts’ is about recognising our shared humanity in a time of increasing social tension and ecological decay,” says Sarah. “It speaks to the fact that most people have a lot to unlearn, while still having the ability to love, and to change. It also speaks to the fact that ‘love’ as we currently understand it, may need to be redefined to include aspects and ideas that can lead to real positive change. This kind of revolutionary love could help us save ourselves and restore our home planet.”
The raw freshness that this track begins with is soon cut through by candid, unvarnished lyrics. But what sets Sarah’s words apart from the average assumption of what an activist might sound like is the astute observations, not only of society, but of herself. Her self-awareness comes through with complete clarity, and without any unnecessary self-deprecating humour.
I spoke to her about the single, the pandemic, and how we can be better for the world! Listen here:
