The second single from The Double Happiness’ debut album tells the story of a little island off the Brisbane coastline. It sonically evokes that freeing feeling of leaving the mainland – the breeze, the seabirds, the lapping waves.

"Years ago, friends spoke excitedly about Coochiemudlo Island (just off the coast of Brisbane)," says Pete, "and took me there for a day-trip." Coochie is an eccentric little character and a very likeable one. Time moves more slowly out there, so it's fitting that the guitar licks are unhurried, with emotions amplifying as we soar to the outro.

'Coochiemudlo' hopes to hold your hand and take you on a little journey, past the dugongs and those gentle waters that throw a spectacle of a thousand jellyfish in its low waves....

LYRICS

Caught a ferry where the dugongs swim
He sat next to her she sat next to him
We found ourselves on a darker sand
Coochiemudlo is another land

Low waves
Coochiemudlo waves
Low waves
Coochiemudlo waves

The lapping of waves sent us to sleep
The tide was rising above our feet
Coochie Coochie the seabirds screamed
An island has entered into my dream

Low waves
Coochiemudlo waves
Low waves
Coochiemudlo waves
