Although this website covers Australian country music, there is a bit of licence taken to sometimes include artists from New Zealand – our countries have a long history of cooperation, and they’re geographically so near, that it just makes sense. Especially when it gives me the opportunity to talk to Jamie McDell about her new self-titled album. McDell’s last album was Extraordinary Girl in 2018; it was her first in the country genre, as she’d released two pop albums before that. Jamie McDell is a work of art – beautifully made, poignantly delivered. It was wonderful to have the chance to find out more about it from its creator. You can watch our interview on YouTube or listen to it in Soundcloud, both options below.
