John Hiatt (born on August 20, 1952 in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S.) is an American blues and rock guitarist, pianist, and singer-songwriter. He has been nominated for eleven Grammy Awards. Hiatt's sales have never quite matched his reputation. His songs have been covered by a wide variety of artists such as Bonnie Raitt, Ronnie Milsap, Willie Nelson, Iggy Pop, Three Dog Night, and The Neville Brothers, yet it took him thirteen years to reach the charts himself.

Because
Why should we act on climate change? Because we want a future for our children.
Why should we live in peace and harmony? Because it's better than fear and hate.
Why should we welcome refugees? Because we've got so much and they've got so little.
The picture of two young boys holding hands was published in the Sydney Morning Herald in the lead up to the overwhelmingly successful 1967 Referendum on Aboriginal rights in Australia.

This Boy Can Fly
Another song for another grandson. My older grandson was 11 years old when Covid lockdowns and online learning became a thing. Surprisingly during this difficult time his reading and love of books - particularly fantasy and adventure stories - went through the roof.
It pleased and old teacher librarian very much and I wrote this song for him but I hope it resonates with lots of other booklovers.more

Cars & Trucks
Lots of my songs are written for family and friends. This song was written for my grandson when he was two and like so many two year-olds, he loved cars and trucks. He's now a big boy of four and truth be told, he still loves them.more
