New Zealand international rising-star, Jody Direen drops new single and video "My Fire" amidst the Covid-19 turmoil stating it's 'a deeply empowering song with a global message during this surreal time'.
Direen wrote "My Fire" over a two-year period pulling together and drawing inspiration from various personal, national and global hardships.
The song has a fierce heart, driving the transformation of internal pain into confidence and courage, no matter the circumstance. For the time being, the lyric "you" is Covid-19.
The Vodafone NZMA Tui Award winner believes music has the power to change an emotional state, and has an important role in times like now.
"It can't be good for our health to allow fearful feelings to overwhelm us".
Direen hopes 'My Fire' will serve as 'musical medicine', replacing possible (and understandable) feelings of anxiety and stress, related to the current global crisis with courage, resilience and hope.
