  • Travis Collins ‘Un-Wired’
    TRAVIS COLLINS ‘UN-WIRED’ with very special guests CAITLYN SHADBOLT & MICKEY PYE ‘Un-Wired’ is a new approach to acoustic touring… This is front porch acoustic jamming, but amplified. Three respected artists in their own right, each a talented multi-instrumentalist, playing their own hits but also leaning on a handful of country music’s biggest hits to create a show like no other. ‘Un-Wired’ is a celebration of the roots of music and song in the rawest and most sincere form - Acoustic. The show swings effortlessly and comfortably between moments of power and energy, to intimate and personal, funny and charismatic. This show has a depth well beyond just the three individual performers alone. Australian country music star Travis Collins is no stranger to success, his latest offering ‘Wired’ debuted at #1 on the ARIA country albums chart, and placed at #23 in the all-genre chart. The lead single ‘Curves’ set a new record with a whopping 10 weeks (9 consecutive) at #1 on the national airplay chart. He is a multiple Golden Guitar, ACE, MO, and CMC award finalist. With a string of #1’s under his belt already and a decade of winning fans all over whilst touring with some of the industry heavyweights, Travis now turns his attention to his own tour. “The album ‘Wired’ is all about connecting with people, stripping back all the layers of blur and just honestly singing my life - their life. It’s about feeling togetherness, as if ‘wired’ through music and proud of where we come from. When I think about touring this album, I want it to feel exactly that way live too… strangely enough, that meant stripping it all back again, but in a different way… the show, the tour, had to be ‘Un-Wired’ .

  • James Blundell
    JAMES BLUNDELL There are many terms people use when describing James Blundell. Icon. Legend. Controversial. Rebel. The truth is - James Blundell is all of these things. He is unashamedly honest and comfortable in his own skin. He radiates an enthusiasm for everything that life has to offer and it’s this authenticity that makes him one of the most instantly likable and recognisable artists in Australian music. Acknowledged by many as the act that single-handedly shaped modern Australian country music by infusing his influences of John Mellencamp, The Band and The Angels with the storytelling ethos of Slim Dusty and his lyrical insight, sharp wit and empathy for the average working man. This combined with his handsome good looks and country charm ensured there was no stopping his success across all demographics. In 1992, James found mainstream success thanks to the smash hit single, “Way Out West”, with former Australian Crawl front man, James Reyne. The song debuted at #28 on the ARIA charts before peaking at #2 a month later. The song was ranked #22 on the ARIA End of Year Singles Charts while his platinum selling album, “This Road”, came in at #28 on the ARIA End of Year Albums Charts above acts including Madonna, AC/DC and Roxette. James was the first young Australian country act to sign a major record label deal in Nashville, which has since paved the way for the likes of Keith Urban, Catherine Britt and Kasey Chambers. In addition to his own success he has penned hits for Lee Kernaghan, Slim Dusty and Jimmy Little.

  • Songwriter/Composer/Performer
    MATT SCULLION – AUSTRALIAN SONG WRITER/COUNTRY ARTIST Songwriter/Composer/Performer When the king of talk back radio Ray Hadley plays your single four times in one sitting you can’t help but feel like you might be onto something. Matt of course is talking about his no 1 charting song “Aussie As” which was released mid last year to rave reviews. Matt is known in the industry as a songwriter to the stars having his songs recorded by the likes of Lee and Tania Kernaghan, Sara Storer, Adam Harvey and Cold Chisel to name but a few- 18 of those going to the NO 1 spot on the country music charts. Song writing has always been a passion of Matts and when he heard “Our Backyard” announced as the winner of Song Of The Year at the 2018 Golden Guitar awards in Tamworth, he literally floated from his chair to the stage to rapturous applause. Matt joined co-writers Travis Collins and Amber Lawrence in an acceptance speech, one he had been rehearsing all his life. It was the 7th time he had been nominated but his first win. Matt says he remembers reading the small print on the back of records and realising at an early age the singer didn’t always write the song. The story telling artists like Tom T Hall and Kenny Rogers were the ones Matt most identified with and when he first heard Cunnamulla Fella and Old Man Emu he was hooked like a Barra to a teaspoon lure. The transition to country music was a progressive one that would take Matt from Darwin to Tamworth and eventually lead him to Nashville where he spent years living out his song writing dreams and learning from the best Music City had to offer.
