Travis Collins – Dirty Money

Following a massive year in 2023, achieving the highest charting Australian country album of the year with ‘Any Less Anymore’, Travis Collins has charged into 2025 with the release of his 10th full length release, The Band Album. This release is off the back of his performance at Australia’s largest country music festival, CMC Rocks; and separate headline album launch show dates in March 2025.

As Travis discusses, “When I started thinking about recording this new album, I was searching for a fresh and different approach to anything I’d done before. It seemed ironic and crazy to me that I’d never actually recorded or ‘created’ music with the people who’ve played the most music with me, for most of my career – my touring band. That realisation floored me, curiosity immediately turned to creative excitement. ‘The Band Album’ was born.

In many ways, it felt like I was recording my first album. There was an entirely new energy, creativity, and enthusiasm that really shines through on this album. I hold the songs, the memories of creating them, and the entire experience very close to my heart. I can’t wait for people to hear it.”

To coincide with the album, Travis drops the latest single from the new studio album, Dirty Money. This single is the follow up to the previously released tracks, Good Thing Comin’, Different Dreams and Don’t Get Me Started. Recorded with Jared Adlam in his Queensland studio, Dirty Money is about those end of hard earned working week vibes.

ABOUT TRAVIS COLLINS:

Launching his career in 2004 as a Toyota Starmaker winner, Travis Collins has had an incredible journey in country music. With nine albums released to date, he hit new highs with his 2023 album, ‘Any Less Anymore’. That release became the highest charting Australian country album of 2023, debuting at #3 on the ARIA All-Genre Album chart and #1 on the ARIA Country Album chart.

With his soulful voice and earthy sound, Travis Collins is considered one of Australia’s finest country music artists. He has a unique gift of piloting both heartfelt ballads and supercharged country-rock floor-fillers. The nine-time Golden Guitar Award winner (including 3 x Male Artist of the Year), four-time CMC Award winner and CMA Global Artist Award winner has toured alongside US megastars Tim McGraw and Luke Combs and his catalogue and various projects have amassed over forty million streams.

Ian Burns – Just One Minute

Ian Burns embraces life’s precious moments in ‘Just One Minute’

Singer-songwriter Ian Burns releases his latest single, ‘Just One Minute’, a song inspired by life’s fragility and the importance of cherishing time with loved ones, on March 28.

Written during a deeply personal time, ‘Just One Minute’ was influenced by Ian’s own experience of being diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma – a stark reminder of how precious life is.

“Being with the ones you love and your friends is of utmost importance,” Ian said.

“Making sure you get that time with them as much as you can – that became a priority for me.”

Apple Music has embraced the song on release, adding it to their Aussie Country and New In Country playlists.

Despite its deeply personal inspiration, ‘Just One Minute’ is an upbeat, feel-good song.

“I like upbeat songs myself, even though I tend to write a lot of slower music,” Ian said.

“I love playing the upbeat ones live. This one has some undertones about getting balance in life and making time for things that matter and that is our loved ones and the joy in our lives – that’s what really matters.”

The song also captures the unpredictability of life.

“We don’t know what’s around the corner – sometimes it’s tough, but sometimes it’s absolutely incredible,” Ian said.

“Life can be beautiful when you’ve got your friends and loved ones by your side.”

“My diagnosis never got me down, it sure rattled my cage, but I thought, ‘okay, how do I approach everything from here?’. What I try to do daily is look for the beauty and joy in everything, even in the tough times.”

Ian’s excited to perform ‘Just One Minute’ live and is looking forward to bringing it to audiences soon in solo performances and with his new band.

“I hope people enjoy it – it’s a fun song, and I’m going to be playing a lot more live with the band this year,” he said.

To celebrate the release, ‘Just One Minute’ will be launched with a special Sunday session at the Clarendon Tavern on March 30. Looking ahead, Ian is planning to return to the studio to record a new collection of songs.

This project was made possible by the Regional Arts Fund, an Australian Government program that supports sustainable cultural development in regional and remote communities in Australia. The program is managed by Regional Arts Australia and administered in NSW by Regional Arts NSW.

Dean says: I am super proud to announce the release of my new single coming Friday March 28th, 2025. It’s a co-write with my sister Maureen and produced by the incredibly talented Jason Barry of Barrytone Studios. I have said it before and I will say it again, I am so blessed to be able to work with him. He is a monster talent and he always pulls the best out of me! My sister and I were introduced to a tequila that’s actually blue in colour “Tarantula Azul Tequila” by a good friend in Ohio. She likes tequila and blue being her favourite colour it was an instant hit! During the onset of the pandemic we joked about writing a song about that tequila. She later sent me an audio clip of her playing piano and singing a chorus. She intended it only as a joke but, the moment I heard it, I told her that’s a great song idea!

  • The guitar solo performed by Jason Barry is an awesome, self described “happy accident”.

Cali Tucker – Urban Cowboy

Award-Winning Country Artist, Cali Tucker, is back with a new single and video, Urban Cowboy. Urban Cowboy received a limited release last summer with Holler Country calling it “a peppy pop country fantasy dancefloor filler” and since then the single and music video have been streamed over 500,000 times.

Urban Cowboy is the embodiment of all the fairytales I grew up with,” Cali Tucker says. “The video tells the story of a young girl who is transported to a magical land filled with mythical creatures, none of whom ever encountered the Urban Cowboy. Together, they embark on a journey to help her find him. It’s a tale filled with hope, adventure, humor, and the relentless pursuit of love – a true romantic comedy at heart.” Keeping things in the family, the video feature Cali’s mom, 70’s country star LaCosta Tucker, and Cali’s niece, Adelin Tucker.

Cali Tucker, described last summer by People Magazine as “a blend of sweet and sassy…addictive” , has had a phenomenal year by any measure. Her music has amassed millions of streams on platforms such as Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. She performed the National Anthem for NASCAR’s Penzoil 400 in front of eighty thousand racing fans and to an estimated television audience of three million. Her music video, Country Couture, has become the darling of film festivals around the globe, including the New York International Film Awards, LA Film Awards, ARFF Paris, Accolade Global Film Awards, Onirus Film Awards, IndieX Film Awards, and The Las Vegas Music Video Awards where it won 4 trophies (Best Female Vocalist, Best Country Video, Best Song, and overall Judges’ Choice).

Raised in Nashville, Tennessee, Cali Tucker’s journey into the spotlight began early. At fifteen, she earned the title of Miss Teen All American and made her Grand Ole Opry debut at age 18. She rose to national prominence on Season 6 of NBC’s The Voice under the mentorship of Blake Shelton. Now, as a Las Vegas headliner, she continues to push boundaries and redefine what it means to be a modern country artist.

Shanleigh Rose – We’re Not Friends

Shanleigh Rose – Sings of Heartbreak

And A Not So Friendly Love In Her Latest Single “We’re Not Friends”

In a multiplicity of breakup anthems, Shanleigh Rose’s “We’re Not Friends” makes its mark, capturing the hostile aftermath following the end of a not-so-friendly young love. A little bit country, a little bit pop, and just a touch of livid. ‘We’re Not Friends’ is the catchy reminder you need that your ex is NOT your friend. “Cause friends don’t lie and lead you on.”

Shanleigh Rose is truly establishing herself in the music industry. Her new single, “We’re Not Friends,” will resonate with anyone who has experienced the fallout of a tumultuous relationship. The song explores the emotional landscape of post-breakup hostility,

blending elements of country and pop with a raw and intense edge.

This powerful anthem reminds us that not all relationships need to transition into friendships. With poignant lyrics such as “Cause friends don’t lie and lead you on,” Shanleigh Rose effectively captures the essence of her message with compelling honesty.
“Often, people think they can treat you carelessly and have the audacity to try and call you a friend afterwards. In my case, this someone was an ex. I’ve learnt that self-respect and knowing what’s best for you are so much more important than letting your emotions allow the wrong kind of people to stay in your life.” Mention Shanleigh

The realisation only came after Shanleigh had finished penning the song. It was a hard lesson to learn, but I got a pretty cool song out of it. Shanleigh hopes “We’re Not Friends” will empower others to recognise their self-worth and determine who can call themself a friend.

Roger Knox – Prison Wall

ROGER KNOX NEW SINGLE ‘PRISON WALL’ OUT MARCH 21

“Here I am behind the prison wall, where nothing makes much sense at all
All the days roll into one, I sit and wait for night to fall”

  • Roger Knox ‘Prison Wall’

Gomeroi songman and storyteller AKA the Koori King of Country, Roger Knox has announced the release of next single ‘Prison Wall’ on March 21, ahead of his appearance at Garinji Dandibara Djanaan in Toowoomba on April 4.

A co-write with collaborator Jon Langford, the Chicago-based artist and songwriter (Mekons, Waco Brothers) paints a moving picture of a man visited by his young son in the chokey. “I’ve been performing in the prisons for many years” says Roger. “It’s a place where you have to give it everything you’ve got.”

‘Prison Wall’ is lifted from Roger Knox’s forthcoming sixth studio album to be released later in 2025. A milestone release, the ‘Buluunarbi and The Old North Star’ album will be his first album containing original material.

REVIEWS FOR PREVIOUS SINGLE ‘BLACK TEAR TRACKS’:

“Roger Knox delivers a heartbreaking yet beautiful sonnet ahead of his forthcoming album”

  • ABC COUNTRY, AUSTRALIA. “Black Tear Tracks” REVIEW

“This song marks the joyful return of an artist whose voice remains strong over time. For those just discovering him, it’s an opportunity to enter the world of a musician dedicated to sharing stories through music. “Black Tear Tracks” is a reminder that Roger Knox is still here, performing and sharing important stories through his songs.” – Landon Buford USA, REVIEW

“Rooted in deep, genuine emotion and a nostalgic classic Country song, Roger Knox artfully and brutally showcases his immense artistic depth on his new single, Black Tear Tracks. The track’s eclectic sound draws listeners in from start to finish of this incredibly moving and meaningful track. Knox delves deep into the special bond between mother and child and the gut-wrenching repercussions of when those ties are severed by forces far beyond our control, Knox’s tender vocal provides the perfect backdrop and sounding board for this painfully genuine track. Knox’s vocal perfectly fits the song’s vibe and tenor adding yet another dynamic layer to this intense track.”

  • WORLDS OF COUNTRY, USA. REVIEW

“Known as the Koori King of Country, Australia-based Knox enters 2025 with his original track, ‘Black Tear Tracks’. A labour of love, the song was penned by Knox, Toby Marti and Jason Walker in 2015; however, it sees the light of day as the first original song from the acclaimed Knox a decade later. Produced by Nicolette Dixon and Toby Martin, ‘Black Tear Tracks’ shows duality in its sophisticated elegance but simultaneously raw vulnerability. It offers simplicity and barebones starkness but is wrapped within a kaleidoscopic rush of music.” – THE OTHER SIDE, GERMANY. REVIEW

Charley Crockett – Night Rider

CHARLEY CROCKETT RELEASES NEW ALBUM LONESOME DRIFTER – OUT NOW VIA ISLAND RECORDS

CO-PRODUCED BY CROCKETT AND MULTI-GRAMMY® AWARD-WINNER SHOOTER JENNINGS

“[LONESOME DRIFTER] SHARES A DEVOTION TO TRADITION WITH MUSIC BY TYLER CHILDERS AND STURGILL SIMPSON EVEN AS IT SHOWCASES CROCKETT’S LARGER-THAN-LIFE PERSONA.”

  • LOS ANGELES TIMES

Today, GRAMMY Award-nominated artist Charley Crockett releases his much-anticipated new album Lonesome Drifter, his first release for Island Records. Listen HERE . Recorded over 10 days in March 2024 at Sunset Sound Studios in Los Angeles and co-produced by Crockett and GRAMMY®-winner Shooter Jennings, Lonesome Drifter finds Crockett continuing to refine and expand his “Gulf & Western” sound. Crockett’s encyclopedic knowledge of various strains of American music – country, folk, soul, blues, R&B, rock & roll, and more – are put through his singular prism. At the core of it all is Crockett’s songwriting, offering hard-won insights from a remarkable, and at times unbelievable, life. “I’d like to be known as a storyteller,” Crockett explains. “I’m trying to tell good, true stories in song.”

Crockett has already given his constantly expanding fan base a taste of Lonesome Drifter, releasing the title track “Lonesome Drifter,” “Game I Can’t Win,” and a retooling of fan favorite “Jamestown Ferry” ahead of the album’s release. Inciting tastemaker applause, Rolling Stone christened him “eternally prolific,” while NPR profiled him in-depth and marveled at how his work ethic “might even win him a GRAMMY®.”

Check out the full tracklisting below. Watch the “Night Rider” music video HERE.

In the leadup to release, Crockett engaged his audience by notably giving away 100,000 copies of a four-song sampler of Lonesome Drifter as a way to pay homage to his journey as a working musician. In addition to the CD sampler giveaways, special Lonesome Drifter listening parties took place at 132 independent records in 41 states.

Crockett will launch a special series of in-store performances this month, including tonight March 14th, at Waterloo Records in Austin, TX; March 15th at End of An Ear Records in Austin, TX; March 19th at Josey Records in Tulsa, OK; and March 22nd at Good Records in Dallas, TX.

Over the years, he’s kept his head down and delivered music at a relentless pace, refining his “Gulf & Western” sound and playing just as hard on the road to boot. Notably, “Lonesome Drifter” marks his 15th LP, major label debut, and first release as part of the “Sagebrush Trilogy.”

All of that work and life effectively prepared him to record Lonesome Drifter with Jennings. Musically, he traces a roadmap through his own myriad of influences, tipping a hat to everybody from Waylon Jennings, Bill Withers, Bob Dylan, and Woody Guthrie, drawing on countless, often unbelievable true experiences since he first left his native Texas. From the spellbinding vocal performances to the raw and rustic instrumentation to the unforgettable storytelling, Lonesome Drifter stands out as his most cohesive body of work to date. As such, the album is the sound of dues paid, strength gained, and wisdom earned shared on tape.

Crockett’s dance card for 2025 continues to fill up. In addition to the first round of “Lonesome Drifter Tour” dates announced last week, he will play his biggest headline show to date at NRG Stadium as part of the 2025 Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo on March 17th.

ABOUT CHARLEY CROCKETT:

Some people politely wait for their turn, ask for permission, and take a shot at their dreams when the opportunity allows. Charley Crockett isn’t one of those people. He’s never just waited around, asked for permission, or let opportunity find him. Instead, the GRAMMY® Award-nominated Texas-born maverick defied the odds at every turn, tapping into a rebellious strain of country, releasing 14 albums independently, and grinding from obscurity to selling out some of the world’s most renowned venues. As Pitchfork points out, “in the decade it took Crockett to brush country stardom, the bygone era of music he loves and embodies arrived in the modern age. He is a key player in deciding where it will go next.” He has continuously pushed forward too. Since 2015, he has paved a singular path out of Texas. Beyond garnering hundreds of millions of streams, he picked up his first GRAMMY® nod for 2024’s $10 Cowboy. In the last year alone, he notably sold out Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, CO, the Greek Theater in Los Angeles, CA and two nights at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN. Crockett and his music have also received praise from The New Yorker, Rolling Stone, and Variety. Speaking to his impact, CBS Mornings chronicled his journey, and he’s sat down for an interview on The Daily Show. Plus, he’s graced the stage for performances on Austin City Limits, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and CBS “Saturday Sessions” in addition to playing behind NPR Music’s “Tiny Desk.” With multi-GRAMMY® Award-winning Shooter Jennings as co-producer, the same unapologetic spirit, diehard work ethic, and no-nonsense honesty drive Crockett’s Island Records debut LP, Lonesome Drifter.

Scarlet’s Way – House of Cards

Packed with attitude and a playful edge, House of Cards takes a fun twist on leaving behind something, or someone, that’s just not worth the trouble. It’s a bold track that reminds us that those who think they’re untouchable might just be one wrong move away from watching their House of Cards come tumbling down. With its infectious energy, House of Cards is a must-add to your party playlist!

“We’re so excited for you to hear ‘House of Cards’! It’s nice for something fun to come out of a negative experience – gotta love that about music!”

In 2024, the band set the Deni Ute Muster alight and captivated audiences at major festivals such as the Tamworth Country Music Festival. Their momentum skyrocketed with the wins for ‘Album of the Year’ and ‘Group of the Year’ at the 2024 WA Country Music Awards, solidifying their place as one of the most exciting acts in the scene.

Scarlet’s Way has shared stages with industry legends like Ian Moss, Kasey Chambers, Kip Moore, Amy Shark, and The Choirboys.

From their empowering single Ride On hitting #7 on the AIR Independent Charts to their self-titled album and top-charting single Empire, Scarlet’s Way continues to build their legacy, with a 3-month national tour in 2023 further cementing their status as a must-see act.

Their relentless momentum is sure to keep the buzz going, with even more exciting releases and performances lined up for 2025.

The Buckleys – See Your Folks Again

COUNTRY STARS, THE BUCKLEYS, RELEASE NEW SINGLE – “SEE YOUR FOLKS AGAIN”,

& INTRODUCE A NEW MEMBER INTO THE BAND

One of Australia’s most loved family bands, The Buckleys, are back with their highly anticipated new single, “See Your Folks Again”. The track comes just as the internationally acclaimed sibling group are about to join superstars Thomas Rhett, Cody Johnson, Jon Pardi, and more at CMC Rocks next week, Australia’s leading country music festival.

Up for “Group or Duo Of The Year” at the inaugural CountryTown Awards, held this month in Brisbane, the new tongue-in-cheek track was written by Sarah (lead singer, bass player and songwriter) with #1 hit songwriter Ned Houston and KINGSWOOD’s Alexander Laska – the latter also producing the track in Melbourne with the band.

The Buckleys, consisting of siblings Sarah (25), Lachlan (24) and Molly Buckley (22) are
also using the release to officially announce and welcome their youngest brother, Dylan Buckley (17), into the band as their permanent drummer – transitioning the group from a trio to a full 4- piece family band. This comes just off the back of an extensive touring schedule, including a run of shows with Casey Barnes, Thirsty Merc, KINGSWOOD and a number of music festivals last year.

“See Your Folks Again” sees the group leaning into their roots with a more organic, country production and a strong lyric-driven and storytelling focus.

“When we got into the studio, our only goal and intention was to pull out the most raw and honest emotion and tell some real stories. I think that comes with age and the fact that we’re all sorta entering a new phase in our lives – when we were introduced onto the scene, we were literally teenagers! So, it’s exciting to show people more depth, as we find it ourselves”, says Sarah on the track.

That being said, that fun, Buckley spark remains well and truly alight in this heartfelt yet playful new offering. She continues… “This song was actually inspired by my sister, Molly, after she had come home one day and told me about an epiphany she had just had where she realised that she was actually in love with the parents of the guy she was seeing, and not him at all. I thought it was a hilarious concept and predicament to find oneself in…so when I got into the studio with two ofmy great mates, Alexander Laska and Ned Houston, we really went to town with the whole idea! I love how it feels like a really beautiful, sentimental song, which in many ways it is that too, but if you actually listen to the lyrics it is so brutal!”.

Award-winning producer Alexander Laska (KINGSWOOD), says on the new material he has been working on with the band, “Working with The Buckleys is a refreshing, endearing, albeit whiskey fuelled, experience in honest, straight from the heart country music. In a world where everyone is jumping on the band wagon with their own version of coca-cola country, this remains a palate-cleansing, no-nonsense or dictate other than to serve the intention-that being, tell your story and frame it in the way that feels most authentic to you.”

“See Your Folks Again” gives fans a taste of what’s to come from this dynamic band with more new music imminent.

You can catch The Buckleys next at CMC Rocks and the Gympie Music Muster.

Shea Fisher – Take Me Back to Texas

American-based Australian country music star Shea Fisher has announced the release of her first single in five years, “TAKE ME BACK TO TEXAS” (out March 3), a beautifully heartfelt song that reflects her love of the western lifestyle and speaks to her authentic self.

Shea achieved six #1 Country singles in Australia while signed to ABC Music as well as a Top 20 CMT video in the US for Don’t Chase Me. During the last five years she has led an incredibly busy and productive life, raising her three children with husband, world champion rodeo cowboy Tyson Durfey, and launching two highly successful entrepreneurial ventures: Shea Michelle Buckles and Shea Baby children’s western clothing (now in more 800 major stores across the US). In that time, she also established an online fitness and health program called Fit With Shea which has over 1000 subscribers and growing.

Music has always been in Shea’s heart, however, and with Tyson now retired from the US rodeo circuit and her children a little older, the time is right for this country hitmaker to make her mark on the music industry once again. As Shea has gradually built a more musical focus on her social media platforms, her following has grown from 30,000 to more than 300,000, and plans are now in place to release three new singles with accompanying music videos in 2025.

Co-written with Karyn Rochelle, Garth Brooks’ longtime harmony singer, and five-time Grammy Award-winning songwriter, Jessie Jo Dillon (Justin Bieber, Post Malone, Keith Urban and many more),”TAKE ME BACK TO TEXAS” is the first grand taste of Shea Fisher’s musical comeback, as she continues to dream big as an independent artist and conquer new horizons. Now in her mid-30s Shea hopes her comeback will inspire other women to realise that age and motherhood are not barriers to success.

“A year ago, I might’ve thought it was crazy to go on this whirlwind ride again,” Shea says. “But I now see that if you have a passion, it doesn’t matter how old you are – you just have to make it happen.”

“TAKE ME BACK TO TEXAS” is available now on all streaming and download platforms.

Kip Moore – Solitary Tracks

Multi-platinum singer/songwriter Kip Moore released today his anticipated sixth studio album “Solitary Tracks”, available everywhere through Virgin Music Group. His biggest and most ambitious record to date, “Solitary Tracks” features 23 songs split over four sides, a resonant opus from beginning to end, and a testament to Moore’s wanderlust drive to pave his own path and explore new horizons.

Moore also shared the official video for the album’s title track “Solitary Tracks.” A stirring vignette that follows an aspiring singer as she discovers her voice and emerges into the spotlight, “Solitary Tracks” embodies the song’s exploration of a born-outsider’s drive that rises into a cathartic roots-rock anthem.

Additional highlights from “Solitary Tracks” include the “swaggering” (Billboard) “Bad Spot,” The Clash and The Ramones inspired “Around You,” the “powerful guitar-driven anthem” (Country Now) “Live Here to Work,” the “gritty, rough, and rowdy” (Whiskey Riff) “Learning As I Go,” as well as the “heartfelt anthem” (All Country News) “Flowers in December” and the slow-burning track “Wildfire.”

There are many paths to follow in an artistic career, but for Kip Moore, the choice has always been a clear “forward,” even if he has to go it alone. With “Solitary Tracks”, his internal compass is stronger than ever. Harboring an established reputation as a soulful troubadour with solid country roots and a global platform, Kip has emerged as one of only a few country artists who’s international footprint is just as deep as his stateside base, built by years of slow, painstaking effort and tireless touring, with fans latching on to a creative force of nature who’ll never sell his soul. And now, “Solitary Tracks” takes them deeper into the creative wild.

Embracing his lifelong drive to break new ground, “Solitary Tracks” is like nothing Moore has ever done. It’s an album of intensity on all levels – vocally, lyrically, and sonically – as Moore focuses his incisive pen inward. Co-produced by Moore with Jaren Johnston and additional production by Oscar Charles and Jay Joyce, its first half marks a deep-feeling acknowledgement of his solitary place, while its second part is the start of a new phase. Taken together, they wrap a defiant sense of personal growth in a raw, roots-and-soul package. Freed up by a new, globally minded label partner in Virgin Music Group, Kip is once again in a position to trust his gut.

This spring, Moore will kick off his Solitary Tracks World Tour, which will take him across Canada, Europe, and the UK. It’ll be followed by a run of US tour dates over the summer with Billy Currington.

“Intensely personal”

  • Rolling Stone

“Restless and rowdy, and at times just pure rock ‘n’ roll fun, the set is a direct result of a few

transformative years…Solitary Tracks doesn’t just crackle, it cooks.”

  • Esquire

“Moore officially revealed his next career chapter – and it’s a rich one.”

  • American Songwriter

“This fellow is building an overseas career that’s stronger than any of his peers.”

  • Music Row

“The 23 songs promise to fire an arrow at the heart of his target audience, a group that’s just a little

left-of-mainstream. His refusal to adjust his aim is what’s made him so fascinating.”

  • Taste of Country

“Solitary Tracks promises to be a collection unlike anything we have seen from the multi-platinum singer/songwriter before.”

  • Country Now

Hayley Jensen – Dirt Rich

Award winning country-pop act, Hayley Jensen, is set to light up the airwaves once again with her brand-new single ‘Dirt Rich’, an upbeat, feel-good country-pop anthem about the simple things in life that money can’t buy.

Co-written with fellow country-pop act Melanie Dyer and Nolan Wynne (who co-wrote James Johnston’s mega hits ‘Small Town’ and ‘Same Songs’), ‘Dirt Rich’ is a reminder that the best things in life are free, and that true wealth isn’t measured in dollars, but in the richness of community, the beauty in nature, and a life well-lived.

Heart-felt lyrics, paired with the anthemic, foot-stomping production by award-winning duo, MSquared, make ‘Dirt Rich’ a song that resonates deeply, whether you hail from the country or simply appreciate its timeless values.

“Dirt Rich is about growing up and living in the country, where we find treasure in things that others might overlook, and that’s what makes us feel rich. It’s looking up at the beautiful night sky, free from the city lights, and feeling immense gratitude and wonder. It’s being resourceful with what you have and taking pride in the craftsmanship of a job well done, not in the material value. It’s in a moment of crisis, where people come together to help one another without an expectation of something in return. It’s family & a tight night community where everyone has each other’s back. That’s what it means to be ‘Dirt Rich’. It’s worth more than gold & proof that the best things in life are free.” – says Hayley.

‘Dirt Rich’ follows the success of Jensen’s hit singles, ‘Outskirts’ & ‘Stomping Ground’, which have amassed over 1M streams across digital platforms. Both garnered extensive airplay across Australia’s major commercial country radio networks, with ‘Outskirts’ hitting #3 on the CountryTown Official Radio Charts, and both soaring in CMT Australia’s Official Top 30.

Jensen took away 2 x Independent Country Music Awards for ‘Single’ and ‘Video of the Year’ in 2025, and ‘Most Popular Female Artist’in 2024. She was also a Finalist in both the 2022 & 2023 Golden Guitar Awards for ‘Female Artist of the Year’ following the success of her #1 ARIA Country Album, ‘Breakin’ Hearts’.

Hayley first found fame as a Top 4 Finalist on the second season of Australian Idol and later made a ‘chair-turning’ return on The Voice in Team Kylie Minogue. No stranger to the small screen, she also performed ‘True Blue ‘as part of Australia Day Live on ABC.

Known for her powerhouse vocals, Hayley is one of the most exciting live acts in the country. She’s toured extensively with her own headline shows and enjoyed top billing at numerous festivals, including headlining the main stage of Tamworth Country Music Festival in 2023.
