Multiple Golden Guitar finalist Graham Rodger has teamed up with Jeanette Wormald to record a duet which features on his new album The Fire Within Me. Jeanette travelled to Brisbane in January to record the duet in producer, Michael Fix’s studio. The song is an Australian classic about a little lake in South Australia’s outback Carra Barra Wirra Canna. Jeanette tells that Graham rang her up and asked whether she would consider doing a duet with him. “I was honoured,” Jeanette says. “But our initial choices for a duet didn’t work out. I was in the studio listening to Graham’s new songs and was really excited by the direction he was heading. I did the vocal arrangements for him on Diamantina, and then realised that Carra Barra Wirra Canna would work really well for us. We learned it that night and recorded it the next day. I was so excited by the harmonies I got teary and Graham got goose bumps. Even Michael was excited and called Susan Jarvis in to have a listen.” The duet features on Graham’s seventh album which was launched in Queensland the first weekend in April.
