Josh Arnold – Shot Down NT Town
Golden Guitar winner Josh Arnold marks a return to the darker edges of country with his new single Shot Down NT Town. The Northern Territory is an untamed land that holds many secrets, and this song captures the mystery and darkness perfectly.
Ella Powell – Country Love
Produced by Shane Nicholson and Matt Fell, Country Love is the sun-drenched new single from this rising talent on the Aussie country scene. Ella Powell has been consistently releasing great tunes over the past couple of years. Her songs tell great stories and are classy and catchy. She’s definitely one to watch!
Benny Elder – Coffee Don’t Taste The Same
The Tassie-born and now Brisbane-based singer-songwriter discovered his love for music at just 12 years old, and has taken a leap of faith by ditching the corporate world to follow his musical dreams. Coffee Don't Taste The Same is the next single lifted from Benny Elder’s forthcoming debut album, For Now And Until Then, out February 23.
