CountryTown in partnership with iHeartCountry Australia is proud to announce Hinterland as our Artist Of The Week, following the release of their debut EP 'LOUD' last Friday.

Bursting onto the Australian country scene in April just as the world went into lockdown, Hinterland are no strangers to the Australian country scene, all three members of Hinterland have enjoyed success in previous bands including The Bostocks and The Daisy Dukes.

Their debut EP 'Loud' is a rich, rock-infused first showings for one of the most exciting new country appearances of 2020.

“We are so stoked to be iHeart Country and Country Town’s AOTW! The support we have received from the Australian Country music industry in these crazy 6 months has been overwhelming and we are just so honoured to be a part of it. For us it’s always just been about making music we love, so for others to enjoy it too is just so exciting!” Said vocalist and bassist, Jesse Emmanual.
