Clayton has a chat to  Zane, from  Michael Carpenter & the Banks Bros  about their song - Heart Aching Blues.
It starts off with rapid fire guitars, machine gun train feel on the drums, with throbbing tom fills throughout, driving country bass and soaring pedal steel, before nonchalantly dropping into a pure bluegrass feel for verse 2, featuring mandolins, banjos and fiddles! Thundering drums herald the return of chorus 2 while the whole ensemble set the tone for the rest of the track. All this provides the perfect accompaniment for Zane’s greatest vocal achievement yet, building and culminating in an exhilarating scream to start verse 3. And it all wraps up in under 3 minutes. Boom! Welcome back fellas!!

Clayton chats with  Alex Mather talks about his new song  - Plead The Fifth
 Lyrically, Alex masterfully orbits themes of love, loss, friendship and family. All songs showcase Alex's world-class songwriting chops and, naturally, his powerful and inimitable vocals soaring unchained above their barn-stomping instrumentals.

Clayton chats to Liam Maihi  about his upcoming show at Deni Ute muster  and his song - Toughest Man.

“I like the rowdy crowds. The kind to pop a boot off and use it as a drinking vessel, The kind that knows dark liquor isn’t just
for the end of the night, the kind that are midnight made. That’s exactly who I am at someone else’s show, the loose unit in
the front row yelling out for my favourite song. So if that’s you, you will enjoy the show!”

Clayton catches up with Dan Davidson to chat about his new song - Making Memories

It’s so easy to get caught up in those “to do” lists…the emails…the mundane duties of life…we all have them. I think this song is a great reminder of the old saying, “If not now, then when?” None of us are getting any younger,” said Davidson. “I hope that this song inspires people to do something they are always going to remember. For me personally, I see time flying by, in part because my kids are growing up so fast. Sometimes I need the reminder that we need to make sure we take advantage of the time we have with the ones we love.”

Clayton chats to  Sheena, about their upcoming show, The Fleetwood Mac Legacy - Go Your Own Way 
Performed by a world‑class international ensemble, GO YOUR OWN WAY pays homage to Fleetwood Mac’s iconic “Classic Five” lineup—Stevie Nicks, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Christine McVie and Lindsey Buckingham—capturing the raw chemistry, artistry and emotional turbulence that defined a generation.   The production dives deep into the legendary Rumours era, a period marked by personal heartbreak and creative brilliance, resulting in one of the best‑selling and most influential albums of all time.

Clayton talks to Ruby Shay, from Ruby Shay & The Red Horse about their new song - Two Shipwwrecks.
A moody, slow-burning track that dives into the chaos of wanting something you know won’t end well,
“Have you ever had the kind of connection or relationship that you know is going to ruin you? That's messy but magnetic, that's tender but damaging and destructive all at once? That's two shipwreck.
 
Honest and cinematic, “Two Shipwrecks” explores the line between healing and self-destruction, embracing the beauty and risk of loving without guarantee. Deeply human, the track showcases fearlessness: Being unafraid to sit in the mess, the longing, and the beauty of loving without guarantee.

Clayton talks to Casey Barnes about his latest song with Pete Murray - Time To Burn

Arriving at a time of global uncertainty, the track cuts through the noise of an always-on culture with honesty and perspective. “Time To Burn” offers a rare pause - a moment to reflect on family, connection, and the passing of time.   Blending Barnes’ modern country edge with Murray’s signature warmth and storytelling, the track sees both artists step into a more stripped-back, reflective space without losing the emotional weight that defines their work. The result is a timeless crossover release with broad, lasting appeal.

Clayton has a chat with Lucie Tiger  about her latest song - Oh Preacher 

Tiger says, “‘Oh Preacher’ doesn’t take itself too seriously - it’s a little chaotic and very much about the kind of trouble you probably shouldn’t go back to but do anyway…I’ve always loved those small-town stories where someone’s trying to move on and be better, but their past has other plans. ‘Oh Preacher’ felt like the perfect way to play with that idea - pulling someone right back into the chaos they thought they’d left behind.”

Clayton chats to Taylor Moss about her upcoming show at the Deni Ute Muster and her new song - Breathe.

A proud independent artist, Taylor’s critically acclaimed debut album Firecracker achieved chart-topping success and was recognised with an ARIA nomination for Best Country Album, and a further three nominations at the 2025 Golden Guitar Awards, including Best Female Artist and Album of the Year.
