KATIE NOONAN’S 2ND SINGLE FROM 30TH STUDIO ALBUM
‘WHEN THE HEART FALLS APART’
OUT NOW
ALONE BUT ALL ONE OUT JUNE 26
TOURING NATIONALLY THIS JULY
5 x ARIA Award, APRA, AWMA, NLMA and 2 x AIR winner artist Katie Noonan has released the second taste from her 30th studio album, Alone but all one, available on June 26th, ‘When the heart falls apart’.
Of the track, Katie explains, “I wrote this piece up on Larrakia Country at Wagait Beach in NT before I headed out to magic Barunga Festival. A lovely lady on social media kindly offered me her Airbnb house in the bush as a place of healing after my difficult patch….so very kind and generous. She is a fellow divorcee, and to be honest I have felt incredible support from the coven of divorcee women online – we are a pretty mighty bunch, and their kindness and solidarity has been really special to feel. This song is a simple meditation on maintaining hope after having your heart broken. Having hope for a 2nd start, a new beginning sometime in the future.”
The album is an intimate and poignant exploration of love in all its stages and features Katie’s first songwriting collaboration with acclaimed writer Trent Dalton. The album is a powerful and delicate offering with Katie’s piano and a string quartet the only accompaniment for her exquisite vocal performance.
“This album is for anyone who’s gone through a life shift - not just separation, but grief, uncertainty, or quiet reinvention,” reveals Katie. “It’s music for sitting with things. For remembering we’re not alone, even in solitude. It’s personal, but I hope it will resonate in a way that becomes collective.”
To celebrate the release of Alone but all one, Katie will take to the road this July, offering fans an intimate evening of the incredible songs and captivating stories that have become the hallmark of her live shows. Joining Katie on this run of shows (excluding Sydney & Margaret River) will be Australian singer-songwriter Mark Wilkinson, who has spent over a decade carving out a unique place in the indie folk scene with his evocative songwriting and captivating live performances. With over 150 million streams and tens of thousands of records sold independently, his warm acoustic sound and soulful vocals explore themes of love, loss and the beauty hidden in everyday moments.
