Four time Golden Guitar finalist, Allison Forbes, presents her brand new single ‘Save You Now’. The bones of the song is losing that version of the life you created and not knowing what to do next. It witnesses sheer desperation, whether observing it in somebody else or experiencing it within yourself, shaking your head and wondering how things went so wrong. Forbes’ voice sails across these emotions and delivers them easily. This folky yet hard-hitting alt-country ballad produced by ARIA Award winning Matt Fell, will leave you asking yourself that exact question if you lost everything. Featuring backing vocals by the incomparable Shane Nicholson, this song is sure to summon some truth for even the hardest of hearts.
