To reveal yourself in any artistic fashion is a far greater achievement than many give credit for. To open your soul to all that may come whilst displaying all the humanity and humility at your disposal is the difference between being involved, and taking a lead; and to take a lead in what you believe without being ruthless and being true to all you are trying to inspire is the gift for those who see beyond the sense of highborn elevation, the Country Bred and the secure of thought and deed in the cheek by jowl openness of the shadow of industry and community.

The idea that there is no community is a cruel fallacy, we belong to more than we realise, we are part of many which becomes the whole, and if we have the ability or the chance to highlight a cog, a part of the machine, then it is up to us to stand tall, to declare our interest, our passion, the belief that hardens our resolve. It is a resolve that Alexandria Adamson shows with absolute intent as her single, Country Bred, not only lifts the spirit, but also gives her the chance to talk of subjects that are close to the heart.

To be Country Bred and be aware of the world is not a demanding train of thought, and yet there will always be those that suggest otherwise, and the same goes for being part of the diversity of life, and it is a role that Alexandria Adamson takes with humility and brings a song to life with gusto and drama.

A great track, and one delivered with honesty, that sense of longing, of inclusion, it is there out and proud; a single that Alexandria Adamson should be proud of being part of.

Country Bred was recorded and released for Transgender Day Of Visibility and World Autism Acceptance Day.
