No PROMISES are a dynamic Alt Country duo from South Gippsland, in country Victoria. Masterful storytellers, they have a huge catalogue of original music, and are currently recording their third and fourth album simultaneously.

‘HOLD THE DOOR’ is the angsty break up banger you’ve been waiting for.
With a dash of Chrissie Amphlett and a sprinkling of Stevie Nicks with a country twist, Janine’s emotive vocals tell the tale of a woman pushed to the brink and ready to fly the coop.

Gritty, raw, punchy alt country rock at its finest. Eric’s electric guitar work captures the angry undertones of the song perfectly and when that solo kicks you in the face and the band bring it on home, you’ll be wanting to replay this song again and again.
Recorded live in the No PROMISES studio with their newly formed band, ‘Hold The Door’ is a tantalizing little taste of things to come.

BRENDON WALMSLEY – NEW SINGLE – COOLADDI

Following the much-loved debut single and title track of Brendon Walmsley’s highly anticipated album ‘Road To Riverleigh’, comes a song whose story is sure to inspire.

Based on actual events, Brendon Walmsley’s second single takes us out into south-western Queensland to Australia’s smallest town – Cooladdi. In the grip of the worst drought in living memory, December brings little merriment to Cooladdi. Is a Christmas miracle for this often overlooked community too much to ask for?

‘Cooladdi’ sees Brendon Walmsley’s songwriting and storytelling mastery in full flight. Combined with Rod McCormack’s beautifully perceptive production, we find ourselves in the midst of the Cooladdi locals – caught in the heat haze of their despair, desperately searching the heavens for any sign of hope.

Brendon recalls that real-life moment. “What happened that night in Cooladdi went beyond expectation and explanation. To be caught in this story as it unfolded, a song demanded to be written.”

For almost a decade, Brendon has joined a team of volunteers passionate about bringing a little bit of Christmas connection to outback communities by providing a free concert and BBQ event known as ‘Christmas for the Bush Bash’. Under the banner of charity organisation ‘Care Outreach’, the team travels to places like Eromanga, Windorah, Augathella, Quilpie and Cooladdi.

“It’s an amazing privilege to join these communities for an evening of the festive season”, Brendon said. “To hear the stories, and in the case of ‘Cooladdi’, to be part of their story – is an experience I’ll forever be grateful for.”

In the countdown to Christmas, spare a thought for those who battle to persevere through the elements and isolation. Like Cooladdi, may they know they’re not forgotten.

A fresh new face to country music, Gary Anderson is a brand-new country entertainer born in Sydney, Australia, who has been packing houses with sold out shows for the past 2 years in Australia where he is becoming known as the consummate performer.

His single, ‘When You’re Tipsy is the first single off his upcoming Nashville recorded album. A body of work featuring 20 extraordinary tracks and a heartfelt celebration of life experiences and country living. His sound is modern and unique with driving guitars, pounding drums and his melodic smooth vocal centre stage. He works his boots off.

The debut gem contains moments that revel in joy and nostalgia yet dares to dwell on the ups and downs of modern relationships that face so many people in today’s world. Featured on this track is world renowned saxophonist “Jim Hoke” who also recently played on Paul McCartney’s album and on the albums of many legends in the US. Also featured on backing vocals on the track is the sensational “Mike Lusk” who tours with and is backing singer for superstars Martina McBride and Montgomery Gentry.

Country superstar Blake Shelton releases his new single, “Texas”, a fresh and addictive song that captures the classic theme of lost love with a twist and nod to George Strait, who knows best where all the exes go!

“The thing that struck me about ‘Texas’ immediately was how different it sounded for me, and I’m always looking to push myself,” said Shelton. “I think there’s something really special about this record and important for me.”

The song finds a man left in the dust by a free-spirited woman who has no clue where she has gone but speculates that she’s probably in Texas. It’s wrapped up in classic Texas charm, with a catchy call-and-response that invites listeners to sing along.

Written by Johnny Clawson, Kyle Sturrock, Josh Dorr & Lalo Guzman, “Texas ” is Shelton’s debut for BBR MUSIC GROUP/BMG NASHVILLE and Wheelhouse Records. The song is produced by Shelton’s longtime, award-winning producer, Scott Hendricks.

“This is the perfect opportunity to come back with something so different, and it easily felt like it should be the first single,” said Shelton. “It’s connected with what I’ve done but moves forward at the same time, and it’s the perfect start to the next chapter of my career.”

With 29 #1 singles, Shelton recently topped the charts with Post Malone and the smash hit “Pour Me A Drink.”

That sweet feeling on a Friday afternoon when all the work is done, and the weekend is here. The first release from Lane Pittman since his number #1 Australian Country debut EP in March this year. “Amen For The Weekend” is the enlightenment we need when the world around us starts to feel like it’s falling apart. It’s the friendly, upbeat reminder that it’ll all work out.

Drawing on inspiration from the new era of Country music and the likes of Shaboozey and Morgan Wallen, “Amen For The Weekend” was produced and co-written by Grammy Nominated producer Imad Royal (Doja Cat, Panic! At The Disco), alongside Blaise Railey and Sean Kennedy. Filled with boot stomping, hand clapping rhythms and a chorus destined to be stuck in your head for days.

Lane is excited by the evolution of his sound, stating that: it’s a departure from anything we’ve done so far. Once I got into the studio and put my vocals on it, that completely changed! The production by Imad Royal is something special and definitely a new sound my listeners haven’t heard from me. Amen has so much energy in it, so I’m excited to play it live and really get the crowd involved!

Fans will have the opportunity to hear it live now as Lane has been announced as Luke Combs’ support for when he returns to Australia and New Zealand for his 2025 headline stadium tour. This is off the back of already supporting Luke in 2023 on his headline arena tour. Woven into the tour is a quick stop at Tamworth Country Music Festival, where Lane and his band will be making their Longyard Hotel debut.

This follows an already packed 2024 touring schedule playing some of the country’s biggest festivals: CMC Rocks, Meatstock, Gympie Muster, Perth Muster, Savannah in the Round and BigSound. Not to mention playing spotlight performances at Nashville’s CMA Fest and recently supporting Riley Green (US) on his x2 Fortitude Music Hall, Brisbane shows. 2024 has also seen Lane Pittman release his debut self-titled EP, entering in at #1 in the ARIA Australian Country Album Chart. The success continued by selling out venues across QLD, NSW and Melbourne on his first headline run.

Can we get an Amen?

I met up with Miguel Rios, a very well- known singer/songwriter from Victoria and Martin Sykes a well- known musician from Queensland at a DAG Songwriter’s Retreat. We had such a great time working on this song and it received a standing ovation from fellow songwriters when the boys performed it that night.

Joys Of Sin was inspired by teenage memories of my Father advising my brothers to be aware, that beautiful women they may meet up with in some establishments, are more interested in your money than your company. And to definitely not drink anything you are offered, as you could go to sleep and wake up the next morning, with no money and no memory of what happened to you.

Australian Country Artist on the rise Bella Mackenzie, a highlight at the recent Ridin’ Hearts Festival, releases today her wildly anticipated debut EP WILD THING. Each song on the 7 track EP is a cascade of lyrical and instrumental earworms, all built around Bella’s powerful vocals, which can blow the roof off or grace the ear with stunning intimacy from song to song. WILD THING EP follows the release of Bella’s singles ‘COWBOY’, ‘WASTED’ feat. LECADE and the title track.

With over 1 million global artist streams and 24k social media followers garnered in only 4 months, Bella has been winning the hearts and minds of country music fans and media alike. Media outlet Country Town noted her “rich voice, catchy country-pop tunes, and can-do attitude”; while Rolling Stone Australia chose ‘COWBOY’ as the Best Australian Music Of The Week upon release. ‘COWBOY’ was met with high rotation on KIX Country, ABC Country, iHeartCountry, Nova Fresh Country and Triple M Country, peaking at #2 on the Australian Country Radio Charts.

Bella supported James Johnston on his national tour and played to capacity crowds at BIGSOUND, BOOTS, BUCKLES & BEERS and Ridin’ Hearts Festival. The latter saw Bella invited on stage by US country music artist Riley Green to perform ‘you look like you love me’ during his set in Melbourne and Sydney.

The go-get-em confidence of Bella’s new EP WILD THING is the perfect nexus of country authenticity, hook-driven modern production and the powerful pride and self-confidence she wants to inspire in her audience.

Determined to capture the energy and dynamism of her live shows on record, Bella headed to the Central Coast with her bandleader: multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Jacky McCormack to record a sound that’s both organic and progressive.

From the sizzling fiddle and guitar that kicks off the title track to sultry outlaw tale ‘GEORGIA’, the swaggering kiss-off of lead single ‘COWBOY’ and beyond, WILD THING is a blazing declaration of empowerment and self-worth.

The gentle and gorgeous ‘buy me a drink’, co-written with Sarah Buckley of The Buckleys, is classic country romance. ‘ neon mood’ is tender and soaked in mournful pedal steel – you could close your eyes and feel like you’re sitting at the next barstool.

There’s no sign of slowing down for Bella Mackenzie whose talent and drive see her destined to take on the world.
