			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A native of Brisbane, singer/songwriter Shane Nicholson first gained public attention as the lead singer/guitarist for the rock band Pretty Violet Stain in the late 1990’s.  After winning the JJJ Unearthed competition, they released their debut album Parachutes and Gravity in 2000.  In 2003 Ultimately, Shane released his debut solo album It’s A Movie, followed by Faith &amp; Science in 2006 – both albums receiving wide critical acclaim and a good measure of commercial success following extensive touring in both Australia and the USA.</p>
<p>After marrying country music queen Kasey Chambers, the pair went on to record the highly acclaimed #1 album Rattlin Bones in 2008, winning Best Country album at the ARIA’s in 2008 and scoring 5 Golden Guitars in 2009 with the album achieving platinum + sales.</p>
<p>His current solo album “Bad Machines” has been recently nominated for an ARIA and 6 x Golden Guitars to further establish Shane as one of Australia’s most prolific and respected singer/songwriters.  In addition to writing, producing and playing on his own albums, Shane has also produced albums for a range of other artists including Angie Hart, Catherine Britt, Lou Bradley, Steve Grady and Sarah Humphreys.  In the past, music critics have been unanimous in their praise, many drawing on names such as Bruce Springsteen and Steve Earle in an attempt to describe the depth of Shane’s songs and the extent of his honest and emotional vocal delivery.  However in recent times there is no doubt at all that Shane has created a unique musical place for himself</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There’s much more to Bill Chambers than just being Kasey’s Dad.  The patriarch of the Chambers clan is considered by some to be Australia’s premier alt-country guitarist.  He can be a master of delicate picking on Dobro or Lap Steel and a demon on Slide.  Along with producing albums for the likes of Catherine Britt, Audrey Auld, Bec Willis (co-produced with Kasey) and the Dead Ringer Band, Bill has still found time to write most of the songs on his albums – ‘Sleeping With the Blues,’ ‘Frozen Ground’ and his most recent ‘Drifting South’.</p>
<p>“What I love the best is to get out on the road and perform the songs.  I still play in Kasey’s band when she’s on the road and the gigs take us all over the world.  That’s where I get many of the stories for my songs,” says Bill.  Most recently Bill recorded his first DVD ‘Live At The Pub Tamworth,’ reliving the great atmosphere that his Tamworth sessions have become famous for.  Showcasing Bill’s best original songs, his large collection of guitars and guest appearances by the likes of Shane Nicholson, Kevin Bennett and Kasey Chambers.  Richard Jinman from The Sydney Magazine describes Bill’s music as “reminiscent of Daniel Lanois early spacious work, all elongated guitar phrases, shuffling drums and ambient rumbling, the combined effect is as seductive as hell.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Music has been a way of life for singer/songwriter musician Ashleigh Dallas.  Hailing from Tamworth NSW, she grew up on a healthy diet of Hank Williams, Slim Dusty and Johnny Cash.  Some of Ash’s earliest memories are of her grandfather and profile country music singer/songwriter Rex Dallas. “We used to go to Pop’s gigs all the time.  My Dad played guitar in his band along with my three uncles.”  It’s no surprise that Ashleigh followed the family into music and asked to learn the fiddle at the age of 2!  Older brother Lindsay plays bass and was part of Tamworth family band The Baileys for 8 years.  Playing regular gigs around Tamworth with her Dad and brother, Ash scored her first big break, when Kasey Chambers saw her perform and asked her to join her band for the ‘Little Bird Tour’ as fiddle &amp; mandolin player and singing harmonies. Embarking on her first major tour, it wasn’t long before Ashleigh began opening up the show alongside Bill Chambers in venues all over Australia.  Citing music luminaries such as Alison Krauss, Buddy &amp; Julie Miller and Steve Earle as some of her biggest influences, Ash is in the midst of recording her first solo album due to be released sometime in 2012.</p>

His career spans 16 years, 21 Golden Guitar awards, 4 ARIA’s , 2 APRA awards and he has the honour of being the most awarded recipient of the Male Artist of the Year in Golden Guitar history.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Frontman of Australian folk/rock band Weddings, Parties, Anything, Mick Thomas grew up in Geelong and spent his youth playing in bush bands until he made a move to Melbourne and spent a couple of years in the pub rock scene where he formed Weddings, Parties, Anything in 1984. A combination of Australian indie, garage rock and country/folk, Weddings Parties Anything released 11 albums and won 3 ARIA awards. The band toured extensively including an Australian run with iconic Irish band The Pogues in the early 90’s.</p>
<p>After reconvening with long time Weddings, Parties, Anything musical cohort Mark ‘Squeezebox’ Wally, 2011 proved to be a bumper year for Mick, completing a fantastic tour of Canada with old buddies The Lowest of the Low and a new album recorded in Portland, Oregon US, to be released in 2012.</p>
