She wrote “Tequila In Mexico” years ago, pitched it around, and still couldn’t bring herself to let it go and that’s where this story starts.
I’m catching up with Sarah Grace Buckley, the powerhouse singer, guitarist, and songwriter you know from the Australian country group The Buckleys, as she steps into her debut solo project with a brand-new creative lane and a whole lot of heart.
Sarah takes us behind the scenes of recording in Nashville and explains why her first solo single had to be the one she saved. We also talk about what it’s like to carry years of stage experience into a “fresh page” moment: new imagery, new sound choices, and the strange feeling of being established and brand-new at the same time.
Along the way, she opens up about writing for other artists, how co-writing really works, and why the country scene thrives on collaboration instead of competition.
We zoom out to the bigger picture of Australian country music’s current explosion, from unexpected line-dancing crowds to the festival circuit that keeps the community connected.
Sarah shares her long history with the Tamworth Country Music Festival and what it means to bring her full solo band to Tamworth for Toyota Presents Girls Night Out at Bicentennial Park.
