Australian Country Music trio RHINESTONED are thrilled to announce the release of their second single Margarita Weather. After blowing the roof off of the venue at their performance at the Groundwater Country Music Festival, mainstream media attention and performances on morning TV, hear for yourself why fans can’t get enough of this ear worm tune.
RHINESTONED features one of Australian country music’s most unique voices Kirsty Lee Akers, joined by her melomaniac husband Jesse Anderson and show-stopping lead guitarist Dan Ebbels.
“Margarita Weather is the perfect song for summer. I wrote it with Troy Kemp while in Nashville earlier this year.” says Akers on the new track. “We were leaving a co writing session and got slammed with the hot Tennessee sun when someone said ‘this feels like margarita weather’ which was a major inspiration for the track.”
The trio decided that this had to be their next single and jumped straight in the studio to begin producing it. “It was funny, we found ourselves asking ‘what would Jimmy Buffet do’ throughout the whole recording process” says Jesse.
When the news came of Buffets passing, the trio were in the midst of mixing the track which Dan says was bittersweet. They then decided that this new track had to pay tribute to the hugely influential musician that was Jimmy Buffet.
Rhinestoned are set to take the main stage at the Groundwater Country Music Festival in QLD on October 20th and are launching their new song ‘Margarita Weather’ on the same day. After the success of their debut single and release of an acoustic EP, the trio are planning to deliver a heart-warming performance to be remembered for years to come.
