One has toured with Taylor Swift, has 12 x Golden Guitars and 11 x CMC awards to his name; the other is a 5 x Golden Guitar nominee and has played bass with some of Australia's most revered acts. Combined they share over 50 million streams and today, Adam Brand and Matt Cornell join forces to deliver the rousing new single, ‘Our Church'. Since departing the Baby Animals over a decade ago for a gig with Adam Brand, Matt Cornell has walked the path of country music. The pair quickly became thick as thieves. When a global pandemic threatened to demolish that path, their comradery gave them resilience. “Before ‘Our Church' was a song, it was our weekly catch up with a couple of my close brothers during covid,” recalls Brand. Both being ‘foodies' who frequently share their culinary skills with social media fans, it was only natural to host the catch ups at cafés all over QLDs Gold Coast. “We found it was helping us deal with the mental anguish of our industry being on its knees, the work & money we had lost. In particular, I was really struggling,” adds Cornell. “But I found solace in my mates, in our little catch up every week. I'm not a religious man, but I decided to call it Church.TOUR DATES – ADAM BRAND Saturday 25th February – Mathinna Country Club – Mathinna, TAS Saturday 4th March – Country by the Bay Festival – Frankston, VIC Saturday 25th March – Rodeo 4 Life - Wollongong, NSW Saturday 22nd April – Gippsland Country Music Festival – Gippsland, VIC Sunday 30th April – Lighthouse Country - Burnett Heads, QLD Friday 14th – Sunday 16th July – Country on Keppel - Keppel Island, QLD** Tickets are on sale now and available via https://adambrandmusic.com/tour-dates/ TOUR DATES – MATT CORNELL Saturday 11th March – The Stock Route Country Music Festival – Dubbo, NSW Saturday 10th June – Lets Wing It Festival – Scone, NSW Friday 14th – Sunday 16th July – Country on Keppel - Keppel Island, QLD Saturday 5th – Saturday 12th August – Tunes in the Tropics - Fiji** Tickets are on sale now and available via http://www.mattcornellmusic.com.au/ Creating a community that empowers men to create direction for their life through strengthening mental & physical fitness.Get in touch in the comments below or head to...Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lachlanstuart/YouTube:https://youtube.com/@lachlanstuart91Website:https://themanthatcanproject.com/Do Something Today To Be Better For Tomorrow

I wanted to write this song for many years since dad's passing, but it was still too raw and emotional. This song is very personal to me, and I knew Graeme Connors, who is based in Mackay, would be the perfect writing partner to help me capture the emotion I wanted to convey in the song. Graeme is an incredible songwriter, and it was a real pleasure to tell this story with him. I have to say, of all the songs I have written, this one is my favourite." The video was produced by multiple award winner Duncan Toombs from The Filmery. The pair travelled to Mackay and spent several days filming around the township, and on the very same boat, with Les' old work mates. Harvey says "This song documents the important moments in my father's life, and I knew Duncan Toombs was the right man to capture the emotion I wanted to convey in the video clip. He has done an incredible job painting the perfect picture to go with my lyrics. I still get emotional when I watch the video."
