For approximately two decades, multi-instrumentalist Brian Heywood has been performing original material with Heywood’s Heroes in the UK. Now, Australia-based Heywood is creating unique, genre-defying songs fusing rock, blues, indie and some folk, confronting the uncertainties in contemporary society through ‘Thinking About Our World’. ...

‘Thinking About Our World’ is a cross-continental show having been performed in the UK. Sonically, the music does lean towards the rock style, but shows Heywood’s diversity in the underlying folk and blues sound. The rough but soothing vocals are not merely "there", but contain a sense of pleading and concern that complements the instrumentation.

Inspired by the efforts of Extinction Rebellion to question the state of the globe and how nations are run, Heywood approaches issues of climate change, famine, inequality and social injustice in this new track. The rather brusque lyricism is pivotal in ‘Thinking About Our World’ adopting a "no subtleties, no excuses and take action" standpoint reaching out to listeners to pay attention.
