Latest from Greg.....
G’day again,

Well it’s finally happening, my debut album is nearing completion. Lindsay has started mixing and there will be a single released on N.F.S 124, one of my own compositions (Every Family Needs a Farmer).

The album has twelve tracks, four are covers and the rest originals by such great songwriters as Ben Jacobs, Shaza Liegh, Peter Coad, Ian Quinn, and three of my own.

This project has been a very enjoyable experience, the LBS team certainly make you feel welcome and at ease. Working with Lindsay has been a very rewarding experience and an eye opener into yet another facet of the industry, his patience, hard work and expertise in this field is simply amazing

Thank you to all of the musicians and harmony singers for an outstanding job on this album, and of course a big thank you to Lindsay Butler (Producer). I would also like to thank my good friends Neville and Pat Jukes for the fantastic photos that they took for my album cover. Most importantly I would like to thank all of the fans that continue to support and encourage me, I am truly overwhelmed.

The album will be officially launched on Sunday 17th of August 2008 at the Hexham Bowling Club with a concert starting at 1.00pm. Artists performing on this show are Slim (Redback) Newton, Bob Easter, Greg Williams, Lindsay Butler, Shaza Liegh and myself, so if you are in the area come and join us for a great afternoon of good old traditional Aussie country music.

A second launch has also been organized on Monday 18th August in Tamworth at the Australian Country Music Foundation Building, at the monthly (Country in the Courtyard) starting at 6.30pm.

A.B.B.A. Media Release

Greg Bain of North Rothbury New South Wales took out the 2007 A.B.B.A. Bush Balladeer Star Quest which was held at Tamworth West Diggers Club on the 23rd of January, from an excellent line up of bush ballad talent.

Greg will be recording a single as part of his win and appearing at many festivals over the next twelve months. Greg’s background involved a great deal of travelling until he finally settled in the Hunter Valley NSW. Greg has worked in the mining industry all his life. He bought his first guitar in his 20’s and began playing at BBQs and family functions.

It was Slim Newton who encouraged Greg to get up on stage at the Bellbird Country Music club and then friends insisted Greg enter the Balladeer Star Quest. As the Bush Balladeer Star Quest winner 2007, Greg now has a A.B.B.A. webpage www.bushballadeers.com.au/bain.htm available more details on his activities over the coming twelve months.
Congratulations Greg!
