TEG Live Managing Director Tim McGregor said; “We are incredibly proud to get live music back on the road again with the inaugural Country Roadshow! This new annual tour will feature the cream of Australian country music playing shows across the eastern seaboard in 2021 and hopefully across the nation in years to come. After the forced hiatus in 2020, we are confident that live music will be back on its feet next year and there’s no better way to celebrate than with this stunning line-up of Australian artists.” “I am so excited to be part of Country Roadshow and look forward to performing in front of music fans again. 2020 has been a challenging year for everyone with COVID-19 changing our way of life and ability to gather and enjoy live music. Country Roadshow will be a celebration of not just great music but also our resilience as a community as we come out the other end. Can’t wait to see you all in 2021!” said Adam Brand. Adam Brand is one of Australia’s most popular and successful recording artists.

Adam’s new album Speed of Life is out now and features the hit single Fly. Travis Collins is a man in demand, having won seven CMAA ‘Golden Guitars’, four CMCs and an American CMA Global Artist Award in the past three years alone. His two most recent album releases Brave & The Broken (2018) and Hard Light (2016) both topped the ARIA Country Album Chart.

Look forward to seeing all our fans and friends at Country Roadshow – it will be a special tour!” said Travis Collins. The Wolfe Brothers, Nick and Tom Wolfe, have conquered charts and garnered fans since their 2013 debut and are ready to give the US market a go! The duo won four awards at the 2019 Golden Guitar Awards in Tamworth, including Album Of The Year, Contemporary Country Album, Group Or Duo and Song Of The Year. 2020 has been a big year for the duo as their new single No Brakes going #1 on the Country Music charts – their 13th number one song – and earlier this year they signed a worldwide recording deal with BMG. Jasmine Rae is one of the most exciting women in Australian country music. Described as a “pocket-sized powerhouse” and “one of the best singers in any genre”, Jasmine Rae has an extensive list of accolades to her name – including three ARIA nominations and 10 number #1 country singles. She is the only female artist to win the prestigious fan-voted CMC Female Oz Artist of the Year award and is a nine-time Golden Guitar finalist.
