A special Moonlight Cinema event for Australia day eve.
With her warm smile, rich voice, blonde hair and big blue eyes, Beccy Cole is as every bit the ‘Poster Girl’ on Australian country music as you’d imagine. The South Australian-born country singer left high school in the 80s to tour with her mother’s country music band; 20 years later, now one of the country’s most loved female country musicians and with enough Golden Guitar Awards to make Kasey Chambers blush, Cole has finally come into her own. I spoke with Beccy about her latest album Songs & Pictures, her “musical and literal coming out”, and why she’s just started to feel herself at the cusp of turning 40.
