‘Better Day’ their new album contains music designed to bring people together to celebrate life, share stories, build friendships and community. It's about sharing the good times and the hard times and knowing that you're never alone – it’s Carter & Carter.
Luke O’Shea - A recipient of The Bush Laureates ‘Golden Gumleaf’, 7 Golden Guitars and twice named the Australian Independent Country Music Artist of the Year -Luke O’Shea - has a powerful - yet classic Australian sound.
Drawing inspiration from the unique and everyday characters he meets or the heartbreaking and significant events of the past, O’Shea designs and delivers his songs to cut straight through the listener’s defences – and whilst there – respectfully enlightens and entertains.
Luke’s sixth album ‘Caught Up In The Dreaming’ was recently announced a three-time finalist in the 2017 CMAA Golden Guitar Awards - for Album of the Year, Heritage Song of the Year and Male Artist of the Year – an award he won previously in 2015.
Deeply passionate about this incredible country of ours - Luke’s determination to Sing Up Australia – and it’s people- is at the absolute heart of his songs. Combine this with his uncanny ability to disarm and engage audiences - evoking tears and laughter – all within a matter of minutes- Luke O’Shea is master craftsman.
Karin Page - Rootsy alt-country with a dash of folk is how most would describe the style of 2016 Toyota Star Maker Winner Karin Page.
