“Where the Waters Run Pure” – A Musical Journey Over Wonboyn Lake

Wonboyn Lake, nestled on the Sapphire Coast of New South Wales, is a place where nature's beauty thrives in its purest form. Today, we’re proud to unveil a special tribute to this pristine estuary through our new music video, "Where the Waters Run Pure"—a lively indie folk ballad capturing the heart of Wonboyn’s breathtaking landscapes and the hard-working oyster farmers who call it home.

This immersive music video blends soaring drone footage, stunning panoramic views, and heartfelt lyrics to offer a unique celebration of the lake's charm and its sustainable bounty.

A Song That Tells the Lake’s Story

"Where the Waters Run Pure" is inspired by the natural rhythm of Wonboyn Lake and its people. The song reflects the essence of this tranquil yet vibrant ecosystem, from the shallow flats and deep tidal channels to the dedication of the farmers tending their oyster baskets. With upbeat acoustic melodies and poetic lyrics, the track invites listeners to connect with the lake's timeless beauty.

Key lyrics include:
"Oh, where the waters run pure and sweet,
Life is steady, the rhythm beats.
From the heart of the lake to the ocean’s shore,
There’s bounty here, and it gives us more."
