Songs for change is an initiative of South Australian Songwriters Tristen Bird and Kyan Burns who hope to shine a light on supporting mental health heightened through Covid in song with new singles being released with a conscience.

TRISTEN BIRD

Music has the power to transport you to another place, and often to somewhere special. Singer/songwriter Tristen Bird has experienced those moments laden with a feeling he never wants to forget and it’s something he aims to create himself.His song writing is cinematic in style, taking you on a journey through sound. His penchant for storytelling has you peering at life from behind the lens of a camera. Observing, learning, listening. Somewhat of a traveling minstrel, Tristen has substantial experience writing, collaborating, and performing right across the world, with Memphis and Nashville leaving indelible marks. There’s soul and country magic to his musical delivery. And there’s a whole lot of fun too. Live shows with his new band are engaging and high energy. Big juicy ballads and raucous southern rock in turn. Lyrics you can lean into. Music you will move to. And moments you can hang onto.

KYAN BURNS
