Audrey Auld

"I have hosted over 700 live music shows on KPIG radio and if asked to give the top 10 performers Audrey Auld would be on that list. She has a great voice and writes serious songs and humorous songs that make you think and laugh, but the best par tis that hse is a great entertainer." —Sleepy John, KPIG radio

Devils are not the only thing to come from Tasmania. Singer-songwriter Audrey Auld's heart is in country, folk and Americana music with a presence as big as the outback. Her songs are the wry and poignant observations of a Tassie girl living in California and Nashville for the past eight years. "Music with the dirt left on" is how she describes her engaging "Americ-kinda" tunes, which combine traditional American country and folk influences with strong Australian roots. Whether humorous or poignant, Audrey's songs carry the ring of truth, and they're delivered with a beautiful, soulful voice and a great stage presence, all of which helped win her top honors in MerleFest's prestigious Chris Austin Song Contest.

Audrey's debut CD was released in 1999 to award winning acclaim in Australia. Her Losing Faith (2003) album, a dark haunting release, put her on the map in the US with Americana radio and garnered invitations to tour the states opening shows for Todd Snider, Fred Eaglesmith and Kevin Welch. Most recently, Audrey has been touring in Australia and the United States in support of her 2011 album, Come Find Me, which received a five-star rating from Country Music People magazine, UK.
