Derek Lee Goodreid “Lost & Alone Again”

Inspired by Johnny Cash, Nick Cave and Hank Williams, the introspective and soulful single “Lost & Alone Again” by Derek Lee Goodreid reflects life and death. Unlike any other song, “Lost & Alone Again” bears a personal meaning. Written shortly after his grandmother passed away, the singer-songwriter poured his grief into the music and allow himself to be healed and inspired in the process.

Drawing both memories and influences from music icons like Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash, who were introduced by his grandmother, the sound of “Lost & Alone Again” naturally glows with nostalgia and warmth, woven together with the early upbringing of bible studies. Though “Lost & Alone Again” came from a place of sadness and loneliness, the track itself is cathartic and transformative.

With a page filled with honesty, soaked in memories, the latest single from the Australian artist is a meaningful release that deserves to be heard—the underlying message speaks about music, and how it heals broken souls.

As one of Australia’s most exciting rising singer-songwriters, Goodreid offers a heartfelt blend of country, blues and rockability that inspires and connects. With words that leave you pondering and melodies that remind you of a good scotch, Goodreid’s music is a must heard.
