Hi Folks,
Well, this coming Tuesday night, 19/3/19, is our 4th Anniversary Show. The Australian Country Songwriters Show kicked off back in March 2015 on a wing and a prayer, with no idea of whether we’d would crash or soar. Fortunately, thanks to a bunch of great songwriters, and a loyal listening audience, we have made it through to 4 years. Thanks everyone.
To celebrate our 4th anniversary, we’ll be featuring the 4 songs that were voted the Most Requested Songs over our 4 years on air: 2015 Kelly Cork with Ruby’s Song; 2016 Rick Hart with Levon Helm; 2017 Tony Johns with Tribute; and 2018 Melissa Robertson with Red Head At Heart.
We have new (to the show) music this week from Gayle O’Neill; Little Shoes (Becky Bennison & Rick Turnock); Proud Mary NZ; Stephanie Wade & Adam Cunningham; The Water Runners; and Tony Cook.
The Top 10 Most Requested songs for this week are 1. Susan Lily, Feeling Love; 2. Kell, Coming Home; 3. Texas Strangers, River Of Tears; 4. Rick Hart & Elysia Gomez, Love Gets The Better Of Me; 5. Shelly Jones Band, Merle; 6. Stephen Phillip, Nearest Country Pub; 7. Justin Landers, My Old Man; 8. Samantha Mooney, Dive In Deep; 9. Destiny Band Oz, My Family & Me; and 10. Lucy Pace, Ain’t No Friend Of Mine.
