McNeil & The GoodLife are back on the road with a rescheduled Australian tour to launch their ARIA nominated new album, You Be the Lighting.
Combining McNeil’s Canadian roots with a shimmering indie Americana sound, the powerhouse outfit received critical praise around the country following their new release through Cooking Vinyl Australia – home to such luminary songwriters as Lucinda Williams, Patty Griffin and John Prine.
With high radio rotation for singles Catch You and Not Like A Brother, You Be the Lighting was made Feature Album on Double J, PBS FM and 2SER and was followed by a coveted ARIA nomination for ‘Best Blues and Roots Album’. Capping off the run of accolades, they won ‘Best Country Album’ at the Music Victoria Awards and received a nomination for the prestigious Australian Music Prize.
In an unforgiving year, You Be the Lightning shone brightly, and the band can’t wait to finish what they started.
“…it should forever be considered an essential chapter of Australian alt-country and one of the first truly great records of 2020.” Dan Condon, Double J
Throughout her musical career, Tracy has supported international artists Dawes, Old Crow Medicine Show, Eilen Jewell, Mary Gauthier, Tony Joe White, Weddings Parties Anything and Australian Crawl legend James Reyne.
