Hunter Valley singer-songwriter Kylie Jane ushers in spring with her soaring country ballad ‘ Seasons Changing’ – a powerful reflection on the different seasons of life, and the hope that comes from knowing even the hardest ones eventually pass.
Driven by Kylie’s huge vocal range and authentic country production, ‘Seasons Changing’ finds beauty in life’s uncertainty.
“Season’s Changing is about the different seasons we all move through in life and love,” she explains. “We’re constantly growing, changing and figuring things out, and sometimes life doesn’t go the way we planned. There are seasons where we’re falling apart, seasons where we’re putting the pieces back together, and seasons where we’re simply learning, growing and doing the best we can.”
Arriving on the first day of spring, the timing gives the track’s central metaphor a fitting real-world backdrop – a new season of growth and, for Kylie, the beginning of a new chapter in country music.
“For me, this song is about embracing those changes and remembering that the harder seasons don’t last forever. There’s always a new beginning around the corner, especially when you have someone beside you who feels like your solid ground through it all.”
‘Seasons Changing’ was written with rising singer-songwriter and producer, Jake Davey, though it wasn’t what the pair had planned to work on that day. Kylie had arrived at the studio to record an entirely different song before a conversation about the changes unfolding in both their lives sparked something new.
From there, the song took shape naturally, with Davey also producing the single and the pair leaning into a warm and uplifting sound that gives Kylie’s powerhouse vocal plenty of room to soar.
“Once we had the idea, the song came together really naturally. Jake just got the feeling and story behind it, and we wanted the production to feel warm, uplifting and real. I love that when I listen to it now, it takes me back to where we both were in our lives when we wrote it.”
The accompanying music video brings that sense of change home to the Hunter Valley. Filmed at Tyrrell’s Wines, the clip begins among the warmth and intimacy of the winery’s wine room before moving outside into the vineyard as the sun begins to fall. Golden light, open country and the transition from indoors to sunset provide a natural visual counterpart to the song’s themes of change.
For Kylie, ‘Seasons Changing’ also represents a continuation of her return to country music after a career that has moved freely between country, pop and soul.
First coming to wider attention through an appearance on The Voice in 2016, Kylie went on to release her debut album Black Swan and perform the Australian National Anthem at Newcastle’s inaugural Coates Hire 500 Supercars Championship. She has since shared stages with Pete Murray, Thirsty Merc and Alex Lloyd , while her country debut ‘Missing Piece’ earned high rotation on ABC Country during Australian Music Month.
Now firmly establishing her next chapter as an independent country artist, Kylie has amassed more than 250,000 global streams, with previous single ‘Saloon’ passing 40,000 streams and multiple releases appearing on the AMRAP charts.
The move towards country feels particularly natural for an artist whose life away from music is firmly rooted in it. Kylie now lives on a 20-acre property in the Hunter Valley, where horses are as much a part of her everyday life as songwriting. A keen rider, she competes in showjumping and eventing, while also running tiny-home accommodation on the property.
It’s a life that increasingly mirrors the music Kylie is making – grounded, personal and unmistakably country.
With ‘Seasons Changing’, Kylie Jane captures the uncertainty of not knowing exactly what comes next, while holding onto the simple reassurance at the heart of the song: seasons change, difficult moments pass, and there’s always the possibility of something new around the corner.

Jo Page – Here Lays She That Hated Everyone
Following the success of her heartfelt single She’s a Bird, South Australian singer-songwriter Jo Page takes a bold turn into darker territory with Here Lays She That Hated Everyone, the final single before the release of her debut EP, Reckless & Redeemed, arriving on 4 th September.Fuelled by thunderous drums, gritty guitars and unapologetic attitude, the country-rock anthem tells the story of a woman the world wrote off long before she stopped caring what it thought. Equal parts tongue-in-cheek and cautionary tale, the song explores what happens when heartbreak, disappointment and betrayal harden into bitterness.Rather than celebrating becoming the villain, the song asks a confronting question: How are villains created in the first place?
“We are rarely one thing or the other,” says Page. “Within the same person can exist hope and despair, faith and doubt, forgiveness and resentment. Some days we soar. Other days we struggle beneath the weight of everything we’ve carried.”
That tension forms the beating heart of Reckless & Redeemed.Blending country, rock, soul and blues, the eight-track EP is a collection of stories about what it means to be human. Through cinematic storytelling, deeply personal testimony and unflinching examinations of grief, faith and survival, Page explores the contradictions that live within us all.From the outlaw grit of Fire in His Eyes and the rebellious swagger of Here Lays She That Hated Everyone , to the nostalgic warmth of When We Knew Nothing, the resilience of She’s a Bird and the vulnerable honesty of Keep On Keepin’ On , the record moves through every corner of the human experience.Because life rarely asks us to be one thing or another.Sometimes we are reckless.Sometimes we are redeemed.Most of the time, we are both.Standing as the shadow to She’s a Bird’s light, Here Lays She That Hated Everyone is more than a single. It is the key that unlocks the emotional landscape of Reckless & Redeemed, a record that invites listeners to sit honestly with every part of themselves, even the pieces they would rather leave in the dark.

JACQUIE ROAR “LIE WITH YOU” FEAT. STEE
Jacquie Roar is back with “Lie With You,” a sultry, contemporary country duet featuring fellow The Voice Season 24 artist Stee.Jacquie and Stee first met competing on The Voice, where both Roar and Stee received the coveted 4 Chair turn in the blinds. Jacquie advanced all the way to the finale, placing 4th. Building a friendship in such an high stress experience, and continuing a real-life connection in the aftermath brings an undeniable chemistry to the record. “Lie With You” captures the tension of wanting someone you know you probably shouldn’t and the temptation to cross that line anyway.Jacquie is also a co-writer on the song, alongside an impressive team of Nashville writers: Grammy Award-winning songwriter Jordan Gray (Shaboozey & Jelly Roll’s “Amen”), Jesse Slack (Owen Riegling’s “Moonshines”), Steve Fee (Max McNown’s “A Lot More Free”), Jason Mater, who produced the single (country, mainstream and major sync credits), and Christian Pond, Jacquie’s guitarist and band member.The result is a fresh, sexy, radio-ready country duet with a built-in story and two artists whose Voice connection gives the record an authentic point of difference.“Lie With You” is about chemistry you can’t ignore… And the moment when temptation wins.
A Thank You note from Jacquie:
To all of the stations spinning my songs – That’s the Spirit, Giddy Up, Other Side, PSA, Free and now Lie with You — I genuinely want to thank you. You are giving this dreamer a chance to be heard and that means a lot to me because I pour my blood sweat and tears into my music. I fund everything myself while also wearing the many hats that come with building a business in such a saturated market. Singer, Song writer, composer, social media influencer, marketing manager, travel agent, promoter, the list goes on and on but I love this industry and I love connecting with MY people, the people who get me and relate to my art.

“ Johnnie Walker (Back To Me)” captures the heart of Stumpf’s sound: gritty, soulful and unapologetically country. Its dance-ready energy brings a fresh lift to a story of longing, balancing traditional-country influence with the swagger of ’80s two-step and a rock-driven edge.The single appears on Two-Lane Testimony, a collection shaped by themes of love, loss and escape. Across the EP, Stumpf uses the open road as both a setting and a way out – from difficult thoughts, emotions, everyday life and the pull of home.“What I love most about this EP is the way each song holds its own while still contributing to something bigger,” says Stumpf. “Every track tells its own story, but together they connect in a way that reveals a fuller picture. I wanted the title to reflect that.”Most recently, Stumpf was named a semifinalist in SiriusXM Canada’s Top of the Country, a nationwide competition presented in partnership with the Canadian Country Music Association® (CCMA) that celebrates the country’s next generation of country artists. He also received two 2026 CCMA Award nominations—Fans’ Choice and Breakthrough Artist or Group of the Year—recognition that he said came as a complete surprise when he discovered the news while scrolling through social media.ABOUT JOSH STUMPF:Saskatchewan-born, award-winning country artist Josh Stumpf brings a raw, soulful energy to his music, captivating audiences with its authenticity and emotion.

Brooke McClymont & Adam Eckersley – Souls On Show
Award-winning country music duo Brooke McClymont and Adam Eckersley today share their long-awaited third studio album ‘ Souls On Show’ featuring the new single of the same name, as they prepare to perform at the Gympie Music Muster tonight.
Recognised as one of Australia’s leading country music duos, Brooke and Adam deliver their most candid and cohesive collection of songs in both their careers with ‘ Souls on Show’ – and it delivers exactly what the title promises. Written by Brooke and Adam, produced with award-winning Australian record producer and engineer Scott Horscroft and multi-award winning Australian producer Andy Mac, the album was recorded live with their band at The Grove Studios, each musician given the space to improvise and flourish, and you can hear it in every moment of space and spontaneity the record breathes.
Their previous album ‘ Up, Down & Sideways’ announced Brooke and Adam as a genuine force, debuting at #1 on the ARIA Australian Album chart, hitting #1 on the Country Album chart, and produced multiple award-winning singles at the Golden Guitar Awards and ARIA nominations. ‘ Souls on Show’ is the next chapter; it dives deeper and celebrates harder. It’s an album born from community, connection and celebration, showcasing real emotion, honesty and performance in an era obsessed with polishing every human edge away in AI-driven plastic perfection. The songs come from a range of sources – old ideas, new inspirations, and the mind of a five-year-old – but the finished products are rooted firmly in the here and now.
Speaking about the album Brooke and Adam share, ”o ur album Souls On Show was written while we either took the position of casual observers, watching from the grandstand or vulnerable self evaluators standing in front of a mirror, in both we tried to make sense of and celebrate the craziness, joy and confusion of life. We recorded live with our touring band, in the studio together, no AI, no bullshit, just music.”
The record opens with ‘ 321 ’ a joyous mission statement inspired by Brooke and Adam’s son Elroy’s imagination, celebrating a life spent chasing songs, family and adventure together. From there, the album continues to reveal different sides of Brooke and Adam’s world. ‘ Dance Dance Dance’ is a warm-hearted reminder that love is often found in life’s simplest gestures, turning an ordinary night into an exuberant celebration of connection and commitment. ‘ Nowhere and Back Again’ captures the easy chemistry that has become Brooke and Adam’s trademark, finding romance not in grand plans or destinations, but in the comfort of simply being together. One of the most pulsating choruses of the album appears in ‘ In and Out of Love’, a song born from watching a friend fall apart. The Adam-driven ‘ Man I’ll Be Tomorrow’ is told from one father’s desire to adapt in a changing world, but it never relinquishes the sense that these are universal feelings. From the rousing and defiant single ‘ Now I’ve Said It’, born from a jam during a community festival soundcheck, to the Top 10 Australian Country Radio hit ‘ Someone Else’s Dream’, a track that takes the infectious cadence of walking through an unfamiliar city, Brooke and Adam are inviting and self-aware: these are their songs, but everyone’s welcome to share them. The sing-along anthem ‘ Too Long Between Drinks’, which debuted at the Tamworth Country Music Festival, is utterly joyous and jubilant. By the time closer ‘ Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah’ finishes its cathartic sing-a-longs with the band jamming and Brooke’s vocals soaring, it’s impossible not to be optimistic and upbeat.
One of the album’s most poignant moments arrives with ‘ Beautiful American Morning’, written in response to the devastating reality of school shootings, it contrasts the optimism and promise of an ordinary day with the unimaginable heartbreak that can follow in an instant. It’s a powerful reminder of the fragility of life and stands among the most affecting songs Brooke and Adam have ever recorded.
The new single and title track, is the thematic centerpiece of the album, the philosophical heart. Built around the idea that every life is a canvas painted by our choices, words and actions, the song challenges listeners to consider what they reveal to the world and what legacy they leave behind. Its message of authenticity, compassion and human connection resonates throughout the entire record, giving the album both its title and its purpose.
Renowned for their high-energy live shows Brooke and Adam are hitting the road on a massive 33-date ‘ Souls On Show’ Australian East-Coast Tour kicking off in November. Packed with brand new music alongside fan favourites audiences know and love, the tour promises plenty of laughs, incredible music and the undeniable chemistry that has made them one of Australia’s most beloved duos. Before then, Brooke and Adam will be performing at the Gympie Music Muster Festival tonight and over the weekend before heading to Savannah In The Round and Coffs Harbour Country Music Festival in October .
Vixens of Fall – Last Train
Australian country-rock trio Vixens of Fall are back with a blues-soaked new single ‘Last Train’, the latest taste of their forthcoming sophomore album Fox Hollow, set for release Friday 13 November 2026 and available for pre order now.
Following on from their 2023 debut album Magick in the Chaos, the 13-track Fox Hollow is much more than a collection of songs. It’s a town – one built on rebellion, redemption and the reckless pursuit of freedom, where 13 songs reveal 13 locations and 13 lessons through the stories of three unforgettable women: Faith, Hope and Charity, better known as The Trinity of Trouble.
Every backroad holds a secret, every saloon has a story, and every lesson comes at a price. Across the album, the trio move through heartbreak, chaos, friendship and freedom, with each song revealing another piece of Fox Hollow and the women who inhabit it. Musically, Fox Hollow lives somewhere between the dusty roads of country, the grit of rock ’n’ roll and the strange, sparkling world of whimsy. It’s wild and romantic, mischievous and melancholic; sometimes a little dangerous.
Vixens of Fall share, “We’ve been sitting on this secret for 2 years and in that time, we’ve had so much fun creating the world of Fox Hollow. What started from an idea of Fox Hollow County Jail for our single Mugshot, has developed into an entire concept album. For our second album, we wanted to create a curated experience. Through the various lenses of the characters of Fox Hollow, we want to thoughtfully inspire people to immerse themselves and ponder the messages and lessons that they need to learn.”
Arriving alongside the announcement is ‘Last Train’ (out today), a moody, bluesy and rocking slice of up-tempo country that finds the sisters trying to break free from something they know is bad for them – while confronting the uncomfortable possibility that part of them doesn’t really want to leave.
As the final song on Fox Hollow, ‘Last Train’ becomes the bookend to the album’s journey. The train offers a way out of town and a chance to finally break the cycle, but the tension between what the heart wants and what the head knows better keeps pulling its passengers back towards where they started.
“You know that feeling you get when you just can’t let go of something? Something you know is bad for you, but it feels… oh so good?” explain the Vixens. “Last Train is about trying to kick that bad habit, but you just can’t… and kind of don’t want to.”
The closing track fittingly wrestles with finality. “When writing Last Train, we wanted a way to close this chapter of “the book” – the Gospel, according to The Vixen(s). It is a symbol of overcoming obstacles of a hell loop of your own making. Hopefully, and finally, learning your lesson and breaking the cycle. Will that Last Train take a different route, or will the doors open back up at your first stop? However, remember, in the words of the Eagles “you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave”. Is your time in Fox Hollow really over, or are you just back at the beginning again?”
‘Last Train’ follows previous single ‘Midnight Cowgirls’, which hit #2 on both the AMRAP Community Radio National and Metro Airplay Charts, reached #16 on the Tasmanian Oz CMR Country Airplay Chart and #28 on the Country Songs Top 40 Australian Airplay Chart, while earning editorial support across Spotify and Apple Music and seeing the trio become the faces of Tree of Life’s ‘Midnight Cowgirls’ campaign.
With more than 1.7 million global streams, three ICMA wins for Most Popular/Best Duo or Band and a live résumé that includes CMC Rocks, Gympie Music Muster, Savannah in the Round and Groundwater Country Music Festival, Vixens of Fall have continued to build a world distinctly their own. Their mix of sister harmonies, country storytelling and rock ’n’ roll attitude has seen Scenestr describe the trio as “a dark ABBA”, while ABC Country praised their “high-energy, witchy western magic.”
In 2027, that world moves from record to stage as the trio unveil the first leg of their brand new show, ‘The Tales of Fox Hollow’, premiering at Moonshiners Honky Tonk during Tamworth Country Music Festival on Friday January 22, with more dates to be announced.
As the doors to Fox Hollow finally open, Vixens of Fall are inviting listeners to follow the road, listen closely and decide for themselves whether they’re ready to leave.
The sirens are calling. Will you follow them into Fox Hollow?

But there’s something about the kind of unconditional love and acceptance you get from your own tribe. I’m certainly not blind to the fact that home doesn’t hold this love for a lot of people out there.. in some cases its the complete opposite and my heart goes out to you. But.. I do think it’s something we’re all chasing down here on earth. Love & Acceptance. Nor money or success can fill that part of our hearts. If you’re looking to fill it …I just don’t tink there’s anything better than having family & friends that truly care for us. I got it… And I thank god everyday for being one of the lucky ones. I wish this for you. I hope you like my new single…” – Duncan.
