Rae Leigh follows her Hit #1 single ‘Push Em Up Jill’ with a family fun song released on the 23rd of April 2022
Description
Following up from her success with her number 1 single “Push em Up Jill”; Blue Shoes dives into generational story telling, passing on the gifts of knowledge we have as women, to make us stronger and nurture the girls we are blessed to raise up.
“A story that has been shared for years and even at my wedding was my mum always wondering why there was lipstick all over her mirror in the bedroom, turns out younger me had been putting make up on the girl in the mirror and couldn’t understand why she kept moving! ” - Rae Leigh
Rae Leigh was inspired for the idea of this song after attending the 2021 Australian Songwriters Conference north of Sydney after sitting down to do a co-write with someone who didn’t show for the session she ended up writing it on her own.
Rae was working as an extra on the Young Rock the TV show when they bumped her to a singing role performing “Honky Tonk Man” as an 80’s Nashville singer.
As part of the performance Rae was asked to perform an original song as well. The crew were so impressed with the song they organized the song to be optioned and although it was not included in the final cut, if gave Rae the encouragement she needed to record the song professionally by the amazing team at Kross Kutt Records. You can still hear and see Rae perform on the Young Rock in episode 4 season 2.
“I’m really excited for this release after hearing it for the first time in 2021 when Rae had just finished writing it, i knew straight away it was going to be a very special song”
