Brian Cadd & Friends
A very special new song by Australian music legend Brian Cadd, written with Jamie Rigg and Lindsay Waddington, and brought to life by an extraordinary line-up of Brian’s friends and fellow musicians.
Have it ready to play from 25 August 2026.
THE STORY BEHIND “BELIEVE”
Following Brian Cadd’s stroke in 2025, his original demo vocal became the heart of a very special new recording.
Written by Brian with Jamie Rigg and Lindsay Waddington, “Believe” was brought to life over many months by an extraordinary line-up of Brian’s friends and fellow musicians.
Featuring Glenn Shorrock, Russell Morris, John Williamson and many more, the song carries a simple but powerful message: whatever challenges life brings, hold on to courage, hold on to hope…and believe.
The Artwork
The artwork for “Believe” is an original painting created by Brian during his recovery.
Like the song itself, the painting represents creativity, resilience and the determination to keep moving forward.
