After more than 25 years of performing Johnny Cash’s songs, Andy Dashwood has brought together some of the best musicians from qld and interstate to tell the story of how Johnny Cash has influenced and changed his career.
Andy and band would like to present to you, as close as possible, renditions of our favourite Johnny Cash songs. Surprisingly enough, this is not a show that attempts to look like the man himself or emulate Johnny Cash’s image but to concentrate on the songs and songwriting brilliance.
Showcasing a variety of songs that spread from Johnny Cash’s early career to his final albums. 
“The first time I ever felt like I was a legitimate entertainer was performing his songs during a Johnny Cash tribute. My first solo performance in 2007, my first tribute to the Man in Black”
“These songs I’m bringing to you tonight are the ones that have influenced my style and paved the way for personal success in the music industry”
“I’m passionate about his songs, deceivingly simple to the ear”
We want for people to close their eyes and be able to think that Johnny is singing. To capture a moment in his songs for the first time. To be able to hear him. As a performer, to be able to concentrate on his style and songwriting in a special moment. To be able to showcase his songs and songwriting, to hear his songs as I hear them.
 To celebrate our appreciation of Johnny Cash.

A TOE-TAPPIN’, HEART-POUNDIN’, COUNTRY DREAM COME TRUE!

Step into the mythical world of Fox Hollow, where rolling hills echo with fiddle strings and destiny is sung in three-part harmony.

Introducing The Tales of Fox Hollow – a dazzling stage show chronicling the rise of three spirited sisters who chase their dreams from a smalltown hideaway to the bright lights of the Australian Country Music scene.

These aren’t just any girls – they’re the Vixens of Fall, and their story is woven with grit, laughter, sisterhood, and a whole lotta soul.

From backyard banjos to golden guitars, follow their journey as they draw inspiration from legends like Gina Jeffreys, Beccy Cole, and modern trailblazers like Max Jackson. Watch their sound evolve—bold, rich, and unmistakably Aussie—as they find their voice in a genre traditionally dominated by Nashville, bringing their Queensland homespun charm front and centre.

But behind the scenes, in the shadows of the studio lights, a mysterious puppet master lurks—an elusive figure behind the producer’s desk, pulling strings, crafting hits, and guiding the Vixens with a blend of dark genius and heartfelt vision. Is he a mentor or a manipulator? Magician or Maestro? The truth might just lie between the verses.  Adding to the magic, their sibling-bestie band The Buckleys — songwriting allies, sometimes friendly competitors. Together, the two-family bands collide, collaborate, and colour the country music landscape with harmonies, heartbreak, and high-octane hoedowns.

Expect powerhouse performances, laugh-out-loud moments, and tear-jerking ballads. With original music, nostalgic nods to Aussie greats, and a rich, narrative-driven stage production, The Tales of Fox Hollow is not just a concert—it’s a coming-of-age saga set to a killer country soundtrack.  The Tales of Fox Hollow – Where legends are born, secrets simmer, and the music never stops.

Dust off your boots. Bring your heart. This is Country. Their way.

With Pete Denahy & the Travelling Country Band

When Slim Dusty’s Travelling Country Band played their last full show with Slim in 2002, the band members all went their separate ways. Fast-forward to 2016, at the Slim Dusty Music Festival in Kempsey, NSW, they found themselves on-stage together for the first time in years. And it felt like only yesterday as the old songs, friendships and memories came flooding back. One comment from an audience member, “This show has to go on the road!” got them all thinking, why not? There aren’t many bands around where all the members were part of the Slim Dusty Show! 

So, Rod Coe, Mike Kerin, Jeff Mercer, Rob Souter and Peter Denahy have decided to take the show on the road. And what an experience this will be; five musicians who will be sharing stories, some of their own music and of course the songs of Slim Dusty which will sound pretty darn genuine because they’ll be played by his own band! Rod Coe - bass, Slim’s longtime producer and bandleader; Mike Kerin - fiddle; Slim’s longest serving fiddle player - over 25 years in the band.; Jeff Mercer - lead guitar, Slim’s right hand man on stage, keeping “the sound” alive; Rob Souter - drums, Slim’s rhythm man for as long as anyone can remember - he even toured with a broken arm; Pete Denahy - guitar and vocals; Slim’s last band member who played as a musician and support artist.

Having stepped into the third decade of his career with 11 albums, 3 ARIA Awards and 15 Golden Guitar Awards to his name, Shane Nicholson is only just getting started. At least, that’s how he sees it...

His album Living In Colour was named 2022 CMAA Album Of The Year as well as Alternative Country Album Of The Year, and spawned the single And You Will Have Your Way, which earned Nicholson both Single Of The Year and APRA Song Of The Year awards. Living In Colour was his seventh consecutive ARIA-nominated album.

Two voices. One heart. Zero pretence. Raw, real, and ridiculously good, the music born of this unique pairing has been described as “folksy country” but in truth, it cannot be contained within a simple genre description.

From the NSW country town of Picton (population 5000) to the biggest global stages in country music, singer-songwriter Missy Lancaster has already come a long way.

Missy’s list of accomplishments reads like someone far beyond her years - #1 ARIA Country charting debut album, worldwide major label record deals, Golden Guitar and CMC Award nominations, 80 million streams and performances at the biggest country music festivals in the USA, Australia and NZ, including CMA Fest and CMC Rocks. Channel 7 named Missy ‘Australia’s Version of Taylor Swift’ following the success of her debut EP ‘Missy’, which exploded onto Country Radio.

But despite all these signifiers of incredible success, Missy knew that she hadn’t realised her full potential as an artist. Stepping back from her solo career, Missy delved deeper into her songwriting craft, writing with Nashville’s songwriting A-list and scoring cuts with other artists across the country and pop worlds, breaking into high rotation on mainstream radio as a writer. She also formed all-female country supergroup Southbound and took her high-energy stagecraft to another level.

Assembling her deepest, most meaningful and best-crafted material to date, Missy tapped chart-topping Nashville producer Josh Kerr (Morgan Wallen) and set out to create an album that would finally showcase Missy Lancaster at her absolute best.

Missy has been giving fans a taste of her new music on the road with Rachael Fahim for her national tour throughout the first half of 2025, with new singles and touring set for later in the year as she writes her eagerly awaited new chapter.

Songs such as ‘Losin’ My Mojo’ and ‘Don’t Let The Old Man In, Mate’ reflect John’s trademark wit and self-awareness, offering a light-hearted take on ageing as he approaches his 80th birthday this November.

Since its release, the album has struck a chord with Australians nationwide, once again showcasing John’s unmatched ability to capture the essence of the land, its people, and its spirit in song. Debuting on April 11, 2025, How Many Songs entered the ARIA Top 100 Albums Chart at #51, reached #1 on the ARIA Australian Country Albums Chart, and claimed #3 on both the ARIA Country and ARIA Australian Albums Charts. Complementing the album’s release, 2025 also saw John unveil his fifth children’s picture book Koala Koala, inspired by his beloved song of the same name.

Alongside songs from his How Many Songs album, audiences will be taken on a musical journey across Australia, with John moving effortlessly between larrikin humour and heartfelt reflection.

From classics like Cootamundra Wattle, Old Man Emu, Chandelier of Stars, Rip Rip Woodchip, Galleries of Pink Galah’s, Mallee Boy, and Raining on the Rock, to his iconic anthem True Blue, John’s music touches hearts, stirs memories, and leaves listeners with a renewed sense of hope and connection to Australia.

Don't miss FANNY AT TOWN HALL this Tamworth in what's become an annual, heartfelt, jam-packed, joy-filled, show filled with stories and colour like none other you have experienced before...

Fanny's journey has been a unique one, starting out on a sheep farm in western NSW all the way to Glastonbury UK by the way of hundreds of Country Halls throughout regional Australia, to Arenas, to backs of trucks. The songs tell the stories collected along the way backed by her incredible and lovable band the Prawn Stars, IYKYK (and we want you to know). 

Here's the 'official word'...

2xARIA and 9x Golden Guitar winning artist Fanny Lumsden “has established herself as one of the one of the genre's most esteemed performers” (The Australian) with her album HEY DAWN having just taken out the ARIA for Best Country Album (presented by DOLLY PARTON) and the CMAA Golden Guitar for Alt-Country Album of the Year. It debuted at #1 on the Australian Album ARIA charts, being the 4th highest selling country album of 2023 and being her second album in a row to crack the ARIA global top ten. Fanny is continuing to break the rules and confirm herself as “undoubtedly the brightest new (country) star of the current era” (Capital News).  Following up her “breakthrough” album Fallow which took out the ARIA, 5 CMAA Golden Guitars and AIR Country Albums, Fanny is mostly known for her regional Country Halls Tour and has recently taken her joyous, energetic and brilliant live show to debut in the UK to a packed Avalon Stage at Glastonbury and followed up with three hugely successful tours, including 2x SOLD OUT Country Halls Tour runs through Scotland.  After a 21 date UK & EU tour fanny will join Paul Kelly and Lucinda Williams for a national Arena tour this year, all “confirming Fanny as a distinctive storyteller, and an indelible personality who can win over fans in or outside of country music” (Doug Wallan, The Australian).

Acclaimed Golden Guitar-winning singer-songwriter Melinda Schneider is hitting the road this year to celebrate her highly anticipated album, Tender.

This is Melinda's first original album in over a decade. Known for her heartfelt lyrics and soulful melodies, Schneider's new release marks a deeply personal and empowering return to her country music roots, embracing vulnerability, love, and resilience.

With Tender, Melinda Schneider continues to forge a powerful connection with her audience through authentic storytelling. The album includes a string of emotionally charged singles that showcase her evolution as both an artist and a woman. Fans will hear a rich exploration of emotional depth and raw honesty through tracks like ‘25 Hours’, ‘Words’ and ‘The Woman’. The new album’s title track, a duet, also features Australian music icon, Deisel.

Melinda reflects on the personal journey that Tender represents: “I’ve always been tender — in every sense of the word. As an empath, I feel everything deeply. My tenderness used to feel like a burden, but over time, it became a strength. This album is a celebration of that evolution. Now, I can be tender for my son, gentle with myself, and vulnerable with others.”

Alongside her music, Tender includes visual art that complements the album’s themes. Melinda’s unique painting process, which involves applying acrylics to plywood with brushes, twigs, and sponges, reflects the layered rhythms of songwriting and life itself.

As Melinda prepares to take her fans on a live journey with Tender, she is excited to share the stories behind the songs, the music, and the art. "This album is a reflection of my personal journey," she says. "Through these songs, I hope listeners connect through their own stories, feel inspired, and realize just how far they’ve come."

The Tender Tour will offer fans a chance to experience Melinda Schneider’s extraordinary new music live, with performances that blend heartfelt emotion and unforgettable

With 3 ARIA #1 albums and 3 CMAA Golden Guitar Awards to his name – most recently Male Artist of the Year 2023 – Andrew Swift is one of Australia’s most discerning storytellers.
His debut album, ‘Call Out For The Cavalry’, earned him a whopping 4 Golden Guitar nominations in 2019 – not bad for an upstart – from which he took home gongs for Alt Country Album of the Year and New Talent of the Year. His sophomore effort, ‘The Art of Letting Go’, came three years later, after a signing with ABC and a whirlwind of touring alongside some of the genre’s biggest names - The Wolfe Brothers, Catherine Britt and Shannon Noll, to name a few. The new record became the 5th highest selling Australian Country Music album in 2021. Hits like ‘Head Full of Honey’ and ‘Say The Word’ spun light-hearted stories of courtship and calamity through a sonic lens that pushed the boundaries of the genre.
Swift’s latest album, ‘Lightning Strikes and Neon Nights’ - released on April 28, 2023 - is his most daring yet. Produced by the incomparable Matt Fell (Troy Cassar-Daley, Fanny Lumsden), it mixes Swift’s signature grit with retro soundscapes and contemporary rhythms. Despite his meteoric ascent he’s immensely passionate about helping those following in his footsteps. It’s this same compassion that earned him the mantle of official ambassador for Gundagai’s Dog on the Tuckerbox. Both a wayward vagabond and a sweetheart, his songs brood on gut-wrenching heartache and revel in limitless joy. He’s a master performer and one hell of a guy.
