After ten years living in Los Angeles, Penny Hewson realized there was an increasing pull to move back to Australia, back to her roots, back amongst her “tribe” and to change the backdrop of her life once again. She packed her guitars and her grand piano onto a big container ship to travel the high seas and to meet back up with her on Melbourne soil, where Penny set herself up in an apartment overlooking Port Phillip Bay and set about writing and compiling the assorted songs she had been collecting along the way.

The result is a revealing collection of beautifully intimate songs which herald Penny’s musical return.

The winter album release on Popboomerang Records is preceded with a double A-side single ‘This One’s For You/My Lover’s Touch’.

‘This One’s For You’ – is a story of unrequited love, of wisdom and innocence, and the fervor of knowing that “we are not right for this world” where ‘My Lover’s Touch’ – shows the pendulum swinging the other way in its stark vulnerability, a female basking in the glow of a new relationship and new depths of physical intimacy.
