Back In Blue – Aussie Blues Artists Release Album for Beyond Blue

‘Back in Blue’ is a tribute album – a complete re-recording of AC/DC’s classic ‘Back in Black’, featuring leading Australian blues artists. The album was conceived and produced by Darren Griffis, a QLD-based musician whose own life has been touched by depression.

Darren’s love of Aussie blues musicians, and of AC/DC, lead him to the idea of putting the two together to provide some positive outcomes for not only those affected by depression, but also for those at risk of falling victim to it in the future.

Says Griffis of the project:

“We hope to make a change – a lasting change – in the way that depression is regarded and treated by society, and make dealing with depression less intimidating. We believe creating this album is a great way to do this.”

All profits made from the release of the ‘Back in Blue’ album will be donated to Beyond Blue. Beyond Blue is one of the most recognisable avenues of help for depression sufferers and their families.

‘Back In Blue’ features tracks by Aussie heavyweights Lloyd Spiegel, Geoff Achison, Gale Page, Lachy Doley, Shaun Kirk, Marshall Okell, Chase The Sun, 8 Ball Aitken and more, and is available online and at all good music retailers from July 19th through Only Blues Music.
