Singer releases film clip

Umina singer songwriter Annita Jo Haggar has released a film clip for her song The Newtown Song prior to the release of her debut album The Long Road Back to Mulberry Street in November.

The film clip which was choreographed, filmed and created by Danny DeMoreta, was filmed at various locations including Newtown Cafes, Martin Luther King Square and the Gospel Garden Sanctuary in Umina where Ms Haggar regularly volunteers.

The clip runs for three minutes and can be viewed on the crowd funding site, Pozible, which she is using to fund the album.

As well as the chance to pre-purchase her CD, contributors will also be invited to Annita Jo's fancy dress CD launch party, which is hoped to be held at the Gospel Garden Sanctuary around November.

The theme of the party will be choices of dressing in green and gold, a pirate or a Dr Seuss character.

Ms Haggar said she hoped to achieve 350 pre-purchases of her album before the cut-off date of August 16.
