Xavier Rudd follows his own 嵐／襲撃する
There's something effortless about Xavier Rudd's music.
It's been six years since he 解放（する）d a 単独の studio album, because he waits 根気よく for those songs. A few years ago, while taking part in a ritual in the アマゾン rainforest, a song just （機の）カム to him.
"It sort of happens to me all the time. Songs just turn up when they're ready. I've never been someone who's sat 負かす／撃墜する and tried to 令状 a song, they just seem to come along when they're meant to," Rudd told AAP.
嵐／襲撃する Boy is his ninth studio album - a perfect companion to his previous work, 賞賛するing the 環境 and calling for people to work together.
It opens with the anthemic Walk Away, encouraging people to let go of the things that are 持つ／拘留するing them 支援する.
保護するing the 環境, something Rudd feels 熱烈な about, is also a running 主題 throughout all his music.
"I love the natural world. I grew up outside, I wasn't an indoors kid," he said.
"I love our earth and I have a real passion for it, so 自然に I 令状 a lot about that, it's what 燃料s me."
But on this album he's also 賞賛するing humanity. He 尊敬（する）・点s movements, such as #MeToo, where he can see people are bringing about change.
"I believe in those movements. I believe in people standing tall and wanting to make change and making that 成果／努力. I 尊敬（する）・点 that because いつかs people feel like they can't but they can. People can do a lot," he said.
On the 跡をつける Keep It Simple he 勧めるs people to walk together, 手渡す in 手渡す, because he believes in people 力／強力にする.
"We can get so much done together and be open, even in the 環境の world, if all the さまざまな little groups that are doing 広大な／多数の／重要な things in the 惑星 linked 武器 and worked together you can make 抱擁する changes."
His ideas and songs may be idealistic, but it comes from a strong belief in what people can 達成する, coming from his two １０年間s spent 小旅行するing the globe.
"I've spent the last nearl y 20 years travelling around playing music and I've seen a lot and done a lot, and I guess I 反映するd," he says.
"Music is my 定期刊行物 so I don't have any preconceived ideas of what I want it to be. I just let it be what it is and it comes out the way it comes out."
*Xavier Rudd's album 嵐／襲撃する Boy is out on May 25 and he will 小旅行する the country in August.
