"IT'S IN YOUR HEART, NOT YOUR HEAD"
Riversong Music is an independent Australian record label, passionate about environmental art. For as long as we have been writing songs, making music and creating visual art the wilds of lutruwita / Tasmania has been our muse. Riversong is based in ‘The Valley’. All proceeds from sales of music and merchandise at Riversong go directly towards helping us protect and conserve the natural values of the native flora and fauna sanctuary in ‘The Valley’ and helps fund our ongoing work caring for country.
Lyric videos featured above for ‘Time Will See Us Through’ and ‘Drifting’, were filmed on location at The Valley Nature Reserve for The Blacksmith Sun. The self titled album is available on streaming platforms and can be played and purchased here at Riversong Music.
Featuring the temperate rainforests of takayna, lutruwita (Tarkine, Tasmania) and Gadigal land (Sydney CBD), Rest in Peace is inspired by a deep connection with nature. Directed by Wendy McDougall, edited by Trudi Bird, song written by Scott Bird and performed by Men From Earth.

The environmental art projects 'Merging with takayna' and 'Rest in Peace', feature ancient rain forests filmed on the lands of the Takayna people.
