about

“Freedom of Choice” is the newest single release from Guthrie Trio, featuring Darren Guthrie on Vocals & Guitar, Paul Rhodes on Bass & Max Carter on Drums. The band recorded the release at Sativa Studios in Rockingham, and then mixed and mastered at Scudley Records with Peter Renzullo.

The song is built around an upbeat Ska inspired riff, a catchy chorus and a driving bassline to help deliver a powerful message through the lyrics.

“Freedom of Choice” is a socio-political inspired song about personal freedoms, body autonomy and above all, our belief in the right to choose what we do without unjust consequences - such as losing jobs, losing freedom of movement and denial of services.

We are saddened about the division that is being created within our community, country and ultimately the world during these times.

Our message in this song is that we will continue to stand up and voice our thoughts, and that we will always respect other peoples rights to have a voice - even if if their opinion differs from ours.

Release Date 31st January 2022.

Recorded at Sativa Studios. Mixed & Mastered by Peter Renzullo of Scudley Records. Single Artwork by Angie Normanton.

lyrics

V1:
Do you think we must sacrifice our freedom,
In order to be safe.
I don't mind what you think or what you believe in,
but my choice is mine to make.
You have no right to say what is right or wrong,
you have no right to judge my song.
You have no right to tell me what to do,
So just walk away if this bothers you.

CH: x 2
Now we march on, our spirits are strong
We're right where we belong, singing our song

V2:
You can't tell me it's not coercion,
If you want to take away my livelihood.
You can't tell me it's just a decision,
It affects the way I get my food.
Everyone deserves to have a choice,
Everyone deserves to have a voice.
Everyone deserves the right to choose,
And still go to work if they refuse.

CH: x 2
Now we march on, our spirits are strong
We're right where we belong, singing our song

V3:
I get this is a threat we haven't faced before,
I understand the virus keeps mutating more.
I get that these are some hard times,
Full of death, poverty and more crime.
Dividing the people is not the way,
we're stronger together wouldn't you say.
Let's unite together with one voice,
Shout "this is about my freedom of choice"

CH: x 4
Now we march on, our spirits are strong
We're right where we belong, singing our song
