Fishing net in the rain

42 years after writing and recording “I was only 19”, John Schumann speaks again about the human cost of war and military service. In the aftermath of the Royal Commission into Veteran Suicide, he found another story that needed to be told. When a devastated mother testified about the loss of her son to the Commission Schumann once again took one young man’s experience to speak to a much wider issue. “Fishing Net in the Rain” was written by John Schumann (lyrics) in collaboration his friend & manager, Ivan Tanner (music). It tells the story one of the young sailors sent out by the Australian Government to “stop the boats”. “While the song was inspired by Petty Officer David Finney, it’s really important to note that this song is about – and for - the thousands of current and former members of the ADF who have taken their own lives after serving Australia. And, perhaps more importantly, it’s for their families.”
