45 Degrees

45 Degrees is the third studio album by Torres Strait Islander singer Christine Anu.

Anu cites Melbourne-based producer Jarrad Rogers as the key catalyst to this musical re-awakening. Long runs with the stage show Kissing Frogs, and the birth of her second child Zipporah had left Christine a little hesitant about returning to the studio. "Basically, I wasn’t going to do another album until the right person was found," she states, "And I've been blessed. Our paths were meant to meet."

In an interview with Paul Cashmere in March 2004, Anu said the album was 'self indulgent' and "We let each song evolve and the strong ones stayed and the other ones have gone into a catalogue to be resurrected somewhere down the track".
