Dianne Lindsay has toured and performed at festivals and musters throughout Australia in the past few years enjoying many successes. A multi-award winning artist, Dianne writes and performs her own style of traditional Australian music. Among her many talents is her ability to interpret and present the real meaning of a bush ballad and this has made her a very popular and much sought after artist which included an invitation to represent Australia in the USA in 2011 at a Traditional Country Music Festival.
‘All Things Country’ is Dianne’s 5th album. This wonderful variety of country songs are presented in true traditional style with a strong ballad flavour. Fifteen tracks in all - seven originals, some classics and favourites. The album’s title ‘All Things Country’ is very fitting and included in the many standout tracks is a lovely vocal harmony duet with her cousin, Anne Kirkpatrick.
Dianne comes from a family that has played a huge role in the development of country music in Australia, her parents being Reg Lindsay and Heather McKean.
In 2012 and 2013 Dianne was a Golden Guitar finalist for ‘Bush Ballad of the Year’ at the Tamworth Country Music Awards and was also voted ‘Most Popular Female Vocalist’ in the 2013 Peoples’ Choice Awards at the Tamworth Festival cementing her place as Australia’s leading Female Balladeer artist.
CHIMNEY IN THE PADDOCK is the first single to be lifted off All Things Country. Travelling countless miles of country roads between shows and taking in the landscape gave Dianne the inspiration to tell the story of a lone chimney standing in a paddock and, as many of us do, to wonder about the history of these relics.
