During January 2013 Washington and fellow musician , Tim Rogers ( of You Am I ) , had the lead roles in a musical-thriller film , '' The Boy Castaways '' . The shooting schedule was for three weeks and it premiered at the Adelaide Film Festival in October of that year . Both singers were recorded on the associated soundtrack album , '' The Boy Castaways : Music from the Motion Picture '' , which was arranged , produced and mixed by Peter Farnan ( of Boom Crash Opera ) . The film was directed by Michael Kantor ; her role was , " Sarina , a woman in a parallel universe where five men have abandoned their normal lives to seek eternal youth . " Garry Maddox of '' The Sydney Morning Herald '' , observed , " it is a subconscious journey into a man 's inner desires , with the theatre as a place where these desires can be expressed and examined ... Kantor 's lack of experience with the camera and directing actors for the screen gives the film an awkward staginess ... Even the lovely Washington is filmed – sin of sins – in ways that make her seem unattractive instead of the siren she needs to be . " Following commitments of early 2013 Washington travelled to London from June of that year to work with Samuel Dixon , an Adelaide-born English-based musician and producer , to record her second album , '' There There '' ( September 2014 ) . The two met when she was touring in support of Sia and Dixon was in that artist 's backing band . Washington wanted to incorporate a " late-60s , early-70s , gold lame Shirley Bassey sound with trumpets and James Bond-y melodies " for her album . Writing was completed in late 2012 . She felt it was recorded in a " spirit of honesty " . Dixon described his experience of working with the singer : It was a pretty intense period and she 'd Washington had such a rough 18 months leading up to it ... But Meg Washington could also laugh through the tears , and writing about it also helped her deal with things she 'd swept under the carpet . Washington provided a duet , " Ghosts " , with Kate Miller-Heidke , on that artist 's fourth studio album , '' O Vertigo ! '' ( March 2014 ) . She had performed with Miller-Heidke at the Darwin Festival in 2012 . Washington delivered a talk at the TEDx Sydney event in May of that year : she explained how her stutters hampers communication during conversation or speeches , but disappears when she sings . At the event she performed a new track , " To or not Let Go "
