Taken from Rachael Dadd's new album "FLUX" - which is out 08 November 2019 via Memphis Industries. Pre-order the album on limited edition vinyl, CD and download here: https://smarturl.it/F_L_U_X
Speaking of "Cut My Roots", Rachael says:
"CUT MY ROOTS was inspired by my own personal experience of our country’s strict visa laws, and is a protest against recent political tides and a general rise in white supremacy. I wanted to speak up for our collective liberties. When it came to making the music video with Sam Wisternoff I used the context of our oppressive past which although is no longer in living memory, still echoes all around us today. It is important that each one of us keeps an eye on our collective liberties. Gratitude to all those who have helped to make these things with me. "
