We've been social isolating for a while now, time to put some spring in our step. Old Times is fitting for our locked-down lives, where we have turned back the clock to discover joys of simpler times. Old Times was released to radio on 5th May by CRS Publicity.

How exciting to take our place on the famous Toyota Fanzone Stage at the 2020 Tamworth Country Music Festival. Thanks so much Jeannie Kleynhans for this fabulous pic!

We greatly enjoyed our afternoon at the TSA Showcase at the Tamworth City Bowling Club!  Many thanks to Kerry Nethery for this wonderful photo with radio legends Ian Crombie (centre) and Mike Stewart (far right), with host Becci Nethery (centre) and Northern Rivers comadre Wendy Joy Ford (right).

A memorable day at the ICMA Awards at the South Tamworth Bowling Club, where we were nominated for Most Popular Duo. Congratulations to Destiny Band Oz for taking out the gong, and many thanks to Gayle O'Neill for this legendary photo!  
 

We've made it to our very first Tamworth Country Music Festival. We missed the dust storm but were just in time to see the drought break!  Bring on the rain and the music!!

We are honoured to be finalists for Country Blues Song Of The Year in the 2020 Tamworth Songwriters Association's Salute Awards with In The Dead Of Night from our Small Town Tales album.  The overall winner of the category was the Weeping Willows, so we were thrilled to be judged against such outstanding competition. Watling was also a semi-finals contender for the Bluegrass Song Of The Year with Barry & Adrienne. 

Absolutely honoured to have two TOP 30 songs in this year's competition, and for Watlng to be nominated for the Rudy Brandsma Award. Looking forward to the Awards dinner in Sydney on Wed 30 October! Check out all the excitement at the ASA website.

The Kyogle Bazaar is moving to Saturdays on 24th August, so we're celebrating with Jasmine and Thor Phillips!

Can't wait to get back to Bundaberg to play at Oodies Cafe!  This outstanding social space is fast becoming known as Bundy's Bluebird due to the many contemporary artists that are adding it to their tour schedules. Great food, warm service, excellent company, and intimate musical performances have made Oodies a cultural icon!

We're chuffed to be performing on the Country Music Stage at the Tara Festival of Culture and Camel Races! Check out their webpage to see the outstanding lineup of performers from across the globe.  Bates reckons if we run real fast we might have a chance against the camels.
