Nominated for 4 x CMAA Golden Guitar Awards

Nominated for 4 x CMAA Golden Guitar Awards

Incredibly humbled to be nominated for FOUR x CMAA Golden Guitar Awards! Alt Country Album of the Year, Group or Duo of the Year and twice in Bluegrass Recording of the Year for 'House Of Sin' and 'Until This Song Ends' with the amazing Allan Caswell and Lindsay Waddington of Lynchburg. Such an honour to be nominated alongside so many of our exceptionally talented and beautiful friends!

Music is its own reward but having self-produced this album and driven close to 50,000 kms to perform over 100 shows, including 2 self-booked overseas tours this year whilst working our day jobs at schools, it is truly lovely to be recognised and acknowledged in this way.

With tremendous thanks to our 'You Reap What You Sow' album engineers Ryan Freeland, Roger Bergodaz and Adam Dempsey, co-writer Lachlan Bryan, musicians Megan Bird & Chelsea Allen of Great Aunt, David Piltch, Luke Moller, Tommy Detamore, James Church and Kevin Breit. We couldn't do it without you!

HUGE thanks also to the wonderful Graham Thompson at Compass Bros Records, Stuart Coupe and Red Rebel Music (Kaz Waters) for their tireless efforts getting our music out to the world, to all the radio presenters who played it, media who shared it and to all of YOU who bought it! We are so grateful for your support.

Congratulations to all the finalists in all the categories and thanks so much to all the judges, the Tamworth Regional Council and the CMAA - Country Music Association of Australia!
