AMBER LAWRENCE AND CATHERINE BRITT PAY TRIBUTE TO HELEN REDDYâS EMPOWERING WOMENâS ANTHEM - HEAR THEM ROAR!
For Amber Lawrence, the passing of iconic Australian singer-songwriter- author-actress-activist-mother, Helen Reddy last September, was the moment she truly felt the gravity of the lyrics of her global womenâs rights anthem, âI Am Womanâ.
Amber decided to include the song in her set at her first post Covid lockdowns live show. The response was overwhelming so when the time came to hit the road with her good
friend, Catherine Britt, for their Love & Lies Tour, she floated the idea to include it as a duet. It didnât take much to convince Catherine who too was a big fan of the iconic song.
âCatherine and I are proof that women can and do - do anything. Weâre both working mums, run our own businesses, we tour manage, drive ourselves, load in the gear, perform the show, then load out and drive to the next town to do it all over againâ, says Amber.
âWeâre consistently asked after the show âwho is minding your kids?â The men on tour with us have children too - but are never asked that same questionâ.
âI believe in equality and that women should receive the same level of respect and understanding as men doâ, says Catherine.
âThe message is as important and powerful now as it ever was. Itâs a reminder that even today, women are still struggling with the same issues they were when this song came out 50 years agoâ.
In making the decision on whether to record such an important and iconic song, Amber and Catherine both had to have very strong reasons to do so. The key reason came when they looked out into the audience when they performed it together for the first time and realised just how many young girls and women were coming along to their shows.
âMany came up to us afterwards saying âwow what an incredible songâ and how much truth it spoke. It felt right to take on the huge challengeâ, says Catherine.
âOnce we agreed that we would record it, we had to work out how to make it our own and take it to the next level in order to pass the baton of female strength and independence on to the next generation of womenâ, says Amber.
Amber Lawrence and Catherine Britt have certainly delivered on their promise and their stellar version of âI Am Womanâ is released through ABC/Universal on Friday 28th May across all digital platforms.

Lyrics:
So many stories told, about how itâs supposed to go
I want it to end so well, picture perfect, how could I tell
Do you remember that boy with the smile so sweet,
used to walk to school down Evanâs Street
Played a trick and his life ended instantly
Weâre all banging on about âHappy Ever Afterâ
Give up the moment to see what else we can find
Running through life trying to get there faster
Iâll take my âHappy Ever Afterâ, one day at a time
So many songs Iâve heard, pretending that life donât hurt
When Iâm lying under stars with the man I love
Even if weâre doing it tough, for me I know, itâs enough
Wishing, Waiting, Hoping, Praying, âcause weâre all insane
Wishing, Waiting, Hoping, Praying, oh yeahâŠ
