Avery Anna Joins CMC Rocks Line-up

Last week, fans spotted a new artist on the CMC Rocks line-up while looking at merchandise organisers shared ahead of this year’s festival next month.

Posters on the CMC Rocks Fan Page on Facebook found Avery Anna listed on the line-up, and on Saturday afternoon (8 February), festival organisers confirmed that she’d joined the 2025 event.

“It’s official – Avery Anna is joining the CMC Rocks QLD 2025 line-up! Big vocals, raw storytelling, and a whole lot of heart,” organisers shared on social media.

Anna added that CMC Rocks is a “bucket list” event for her. She wrote on Instagram, “CMC Rocks has been on my bucket list since I started touring and I am beyond excited to be a part of it this year! I will see ya’ll soon.”

Last year, Anna released her debut album, Breakup Over Breakfast, and has gone viral with her collaboration with Sam Barber, Indigo.

With over 500 million streams, a Platinum-certified hit (Narcissist), and a CMT Breakthrough Artist of the Year nomination to her name, Anna is becoming a must-watch talent. After her appearance at CMC Rocks, she’s set to join Luke Bryan on tour.

CMC Rocks 2025 will return to the site of Willowbank Raceway, Ipswich, from Friday, 21 March, to Sunday, 23 March.

This year’s event is headlined by American country music icons Cody Johnson, Jon Pardi, and Thomas Rhett.

In addition to the headliners, the festival has locked in numerous impressive international acts, including Dylan Marlowe, Alana Springsteen, Cole Swindell, Larry Fleet, Kaylee Bell, and many others. The Australian contingent is also showing up, with Travis Collins, Lane Pittman, Zac & George, Max Jackson, Amy Sheppard, Denvah, and many more set to perform.
