This past week I worked on the recording and filming of an Australia's Country Music all star compilation album which Colin Buchanan put together. Over a couple of days, 16 songs were recorded at Garth Porters Rancom St Studio (Garth is of 70's Sherbet fame; a songwriter who helped launched Lee Kernaghan; a Producer for talent such as James Blundell, Gina Jeffreys and Troy Cassar-Daley...oh! and Craig McLachlan - Garth told me is a really talented musician).
I was called in for makeup and grooming for everyone, including the band members who are all highly regarded musicians (e.g. Mark Punch - Renee Geyers guitarist, Mitch Farmer - drummer for Tommy Emmanuel, Leann Rimes, Sydney 2000 Olympic Games, The Lion King). The performers included;
Colin Buchanan 9 Golden Guitar awards, APRA and Aria awards
OAM Lee Kernaghan one of Australia's most famous Country Music performers
Troy Cassar-Daley multiple Aria and APRA awards
Anne Kirkpatrick daughter of Slim Dusty, 6 Golden Guitars and Aria award
Sara Storer 7 Golden Guitar awards
Dianna Corcoran 2 Golden Guitar awards
Camielle Te Nahu Female Vocal of the Year, backing singer for Kasey Chambers & Gina Jeffreys
Markus Meier supports Lee Kernaghan - won't be long before he's famous in his own right!
John Williamson 23+ Golden Guitars & Aria award
Dobe Newton one of the most respected artists & consultants in Australian music - including rock
Peter Denahy nominated for 5 Golden Guitars
I think this was the 'funnest' job I've had in a while - all ego's were left at the door and everyone was so genuine and happy. I even developed a taste for Country Music!
Lee Kernaghan
I don't know why I didn't discover him earlier - this man is such a spunk!

he was a bit rushed so I couldn't get a photo with him.
