Only in Australia pays tribute to the supporters of home grown Aussie music, to the country and all the true blue Aussies who make it great.
Gunn’s fourth album was two years in the making, recorded in five different studios on two different continents, with some of the world's finest musicians.
December 2018 saw the Only in Australia single peak at #1 on the National Airplay Top 40 Radio Chart and hit #1 on the Tasmania Top 30 Radio chart, with Benn having multiple singles scheduled to be released in 2019.
Australia Day at Culburra Bowling Club will see Gunn stage his own unique style, which he calls Aussie Heartland Rock – combining straightforward rock, a concern for the average Aussie battler, and a conviction that rock music is about entertainment, a connection and purpose beyond entertainment, with roots in Australian pub rock, country rock, Americana, rock and roll and folk rock.
From the epic title track Only In Australia to the thumping tracks Go Hard Or Go Home and Built Aussie Tough, Gunn fans will be thrilled with the solid uptempo rock he's gained a reputation for across the country.
There's also the hilarious rocker I Got The Boat, the fun and very bogan We Can Be Mates and the audio track from Russell Coight’s dance video sensation Cut The Rug.
The deeply moving song Another Aussie Digger pays tribute to those who served in our armed forces.
For the romantics, there are two love songs Pretty Keen On That filled with Aussie imagery and Luckiest Man Alive.
For State Of Origin fans there's the rousing state songs We're From New South Wales and I'm A Queenslander.
Currently the only way to purchase a copy of the album is to call or text 0474334952.
