Alan Percy – Buckaroo
Multi Instrumentalist/singer songwriter ALAN PERCY from the award winning duo “ALAN and TRACE ”, has been writing for their upcoming album, following their number one single “THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH ”.
After recording the instrumental “Buckaroo” (formerly recorded by The Buckaroos in November 1965) to celebrate the 55th Anniversary of it’s release and topping the charts, Alan decided to release his version to radio.
It features harmony guitars and pedal steel while still retaining and admiring the distinct sound of Don Rich (Buck Owen’s guitarist) arguably the father of what we now know as the
Bakersfield sound.

Australia's Country Music Gentleman
Rod Williams
A name well known to the eastern states of Australia, 1980-1988 as an accomplished singer/song writer recording artist. Rod has been blessed with a strong rich voice which has allowed him to perform in some of the best venues throughout Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria, including RSL’s, Hotel’s, Festival’s and Club’s, etc.
Affectionately dubbed “Australia’s Country Music Gentleman” by the music press, because of his attire and presentation, is a tag Rod wears with pride. After more than 20 years off the music scene Rod is making a comeback and is still going strong today writing and recording many fabulous songs and singing with the same rich velvet smooth voice he is known for. Two more albums, both recorded in 2009 are "Reminiscing", a collection of some of Rods favorites and "Sings Hank". This album has some of the best Hank Williams numbers covered beautifully by Rod in his own smooth style and all albums are available on his new Website.
Rod’s latest release is a self penned bush ballad CD single titled “An Old Time Drover”. A song he wrote after attending the Boondooma Bush Ballad Festival in April. A song which is close to Rod’s heart as he spent a great deal of his early life in the outback.

This classic Australian story is a bush ballad written for women and their life in the bush. Written especially for Dianne by Joy McKean is the true story of a lonely baby’s grave in the Nulla Nulla Valley (Kempsey). A small cement marker and brass plate showed the tiny grave where baby Florence Rebecca Kyle was buried and remains

Feeling very proud. Just heard the news that The Australian Country Songs Airplay Chart of 2020 has just been released.
It is a special chart/wrap up of the year.
Amazingly, I am the only female artist to have 5 songs chart this year and to give you a sense of who else charted 5 songs; Keith Urban, Travis Collins, Casey Barnes, Lloyd Back and the Duo/Band Destiny Band OZ.
Amazingly, I am the third most played female artist in 2020.
Two of my songs charted in this special chart based on their highest position and length of time in the weekly Top40 chart:
#21 One Girl Band
#38 Forever and a Day
I have so many people to thank including;
Glenn Langford
the producer of my Album ‘One Girl Band 25 Years, Michael Carpenter
the producer of my song ‘Wild Child’, The Key2 Team, CRS Publicity, Campfire Publishing, OCMR, Diamondback Records, the radio presenters, loyal listeners, fans who requested my songs on their local radio station, my family and friends. Thank you so much
