5 X Golden Guitar Award Winner

There’s no denying that Catherine Britt has well and truly lived her life and it’s all laid bare on her ninth career album, “The Hardest Thing”, out Friday 23rd January 2026.

“The Hardest Thing” is the ultimate triumph of one of Australia’s most loved and celebrated country artists. This is the sound of redemption and Catherine Britt at her absolute finest.

Catherine Britt is one of the most successful artists in Australian country music. She is a five-time Golden Guitar Award winner, six-time ARIA Award Best Country Album nominee, signed to RCA in the US at just 17, earned two US Billboard Top 40 Chart singles, toured and worked with everyone from Brooks & Dunn to Alan Jackson to Dolly Parton, is the youngest Australian ever to perform at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville and recorded a duet with Sir Elton John.

Join us at this special launch event during the 2026 Tamworth Country Music Festival to enjoy the new songs along with classic Catherine Britt songs live.
