Paul Kelly, widely recognized as one of Australia’s finest songwriters, has spent over 40 years reflecting the beauty, humor, and sorrow of everyday lives. On his album Seventy, he embraces this craft with fresh intent, inspired by traditional storytelling where shared narratives bring comfort, meaning, and hope amid darkness.
The album unfolds like a gathering around a campfire or a family reunion, with each track telling a unique story—whether a ghost tale, a love song, a joke, or a mournful reflection.
“It’s a beautiful way to celebrate turning 70!”
This work highlights Kelly’s enduring gift for connecting people through heartfelt stories.
