The Songs of Charcoal Lane is the tenth studio album by Australian singer songwriter Archie Roach.

It was announced on 9 October 2020, alongside the video of the new version of 'Took The Children Away'.

[3] In a press statement, Roach said the relaxed recording environment gave the new album "an intimacy [and] a closeness".

Roach said "I have been so much more relaxed sitting here at my kitchen table with a cup of tea, looking out at my yard, recording the songs, maybe doing two to three takes.

When we listen back to the recordings you can sense that there's a different feel, a more relaxed approach to the songs, it's more earthy.
