Brent Parlane - vocals - 'Bridge of Love' 1994

Brent Parlane

Often compared to international singer-songwriters like Paul Simon, Brent Parlane hailed from regional Victoria and was signed to ABC Music which helped him launch into the Australian country music scene in a serious way by the time 'Bridge of Love' was being recorded in 1994. A generous soul and dedicated father as well, Brent helped out with the project in many ways, such as appearing on Bert Newton's morning TV show out of Melbourne to perform the song 'Bridge of Love' live with a backing chorus of kids.

The Bridge of Love Project is an official Australian awareness-raising endeavour for the 20th Anniversary International Year of the Family, an initiative of the United Nations. Australia celebrates National Families Week 15-21 May 2014. The UN-designated theme for this year's international campaign is: 'Stronger Families, Stronger Communities'.

All proceeds from the Bridge of Love Project are directed towards Barnardos Australia for their continuing work with vulnerable children and young people in our communities.
