Blue Mountains songwriter Julia Jacklin took home the 2019 SMAC Award for Album of the Year last Tuesday for her heartwrenching, extraordinary second record, Crushing.

TRACKS PLAYED: 'Body' 'Head Alone' 'Pressure to Party' 'Don't Know How to Keep Loving You' 'When the Family Flies In' 'Convention' 'Good Guy' 'You Were Right' 'Turn Me Down' 'Comfort'.
