Newcastle’s own Morgan Evans is once again in the running for CMC Oz Artist of the Year, and this time he’s joined by fellow local favourites McAlister Kemp.
Evans, who took home the award back in 2013, faces some strong competition this year from the powerhouse country duo made up of Drew McAlister and Troy Kemp. Known for their dynamic live shows and authentic storytelling, McAlister Kemp has earned a loyal following and plenty of critical acclaim.
It’s a big moment for local talent, with two of the Hunter’s finest flying the flag on the national stage. Whether you’re team Morgan or backing the boys from McAlister Kemp, it’s great to see homegrown artists getting the recognition they deserve.
We’ll be on the ground at CMC Rocks the Hunter and covering the upcoming show at Lizotte’s, so keep an eye on Newcastle Live for the full review and photo gallery.
