About The Fool in Me 2020The Fool in Me is the second studio record from the rock n’ roll trio Claiming It Anyway. 8 Tracks covering everything from hard rock to blues with a bit of pop sensibility. The Fool in Me is a line from the song Castaway (track 2) which hints at the fun side of us, or indeed the little bit of us that just never wants to grow up.
This album also features the single Home Safe, the bands only ballad to date. Written in the midst of the Australian Bush fires, only 1 week before the booked studio time for The Fool in Me.
‘Probably the most important words I’ve ever written’
