Deep Deep Love contains eleven songs all written by Brodie over fifteen years in various locales, both overseas and closer to home. The concept of the album came about when he realised how many songs hadn’t found homes on his previous records.“These songs are my lost and found collection,” stated Brodie in a recent interview. "Lean On Me" was originally demoed for my band, The Broken Arrows and "Falling For You" was written in a St Kilda share house when I lived with Robbie Rocket (Cosmic Psychos), Shane Walsh and Ian Rilen (Rose Tattoo). "Fallen Down Again" is a stab at an Ennio Morricone type song, just because every songwriter ought to try at least one spaghetti western song in their career and the new single Tear us down questions a relationship that may be heading for troubled waters."Deep Deep Love also features minimalist backing of double bass by Dean Schulz (Headbelly Buzzard, Suzannah Espie) the sweet harmonies of Layla and Rhianna Fibbins (Sideshow Brides) and Grieving Widow's alumni Chris Brodie and David Nicholls on guitar and drums respectively.. }
