Cass Hopetoun &#8211; Say the Word"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Andrew Swift has gone from strength to strength since making his dive into the Australian country music scene. In 2017, he was a Toyota Starmaker Grand-Finalist; going on to release his album, &#8216;Call Out for the Cavalry&#8217;, which hit the #1 spot on the ARIA Australian Country Album Chart and win at the 2019 Golden Guitar Awards for Qantas New Talent of the Year &amp; for Alt Country Album of the Year. In 2021, Andrew would go on to co-host the Golden Guitar Awards.<\/p>\n<p>In 2020, Andrew signed with ABC Music and released the first single from his forthcoming new album. Never Meant To Break Your Heart, the single, went onto secure Andrew&#8217;s highest National Country Airplay chart to date &#8211; peaking at #4.<\/p>\n<p>His 2nd single release, Right On Down, also climbed the charts peaking at #9 on the National Country Airplay Charts. His latest single, Head Full of Honey, also landed in the Top 10; reaching #7 on the National Airplay Chart.<\/p>\n<p>Now Andrew drops a new track, Say The Word featuring Cass Hopetoun, giving fans another taste from his forthcoming album release, &#8216;The Art of Letting Go&#8217; . As Andrew describes the song, &#8220;If you&#8217;ve ever had a connection with someone and the timing just hasn&#8217;t worked out, I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ll be able to relate to this song. About halfway through writing Say The Word with Phil Barton, I suggested we make it a duet. I thought that as a duet it would add another level as to why the two characters hadn&#8217;t got together yet as they&#8217;re both waiting on the other to make the first move. I already had Cass Hopetoun in mind to approach about a collaboration at some stage, I&#8217;m glad I pitched this one to her, she sounds amazing on it and I couldn&#8217;t be happier.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Andrew Swift has gone from strength to strength since making his dive into the Australian country music scene.
