Congratulations Lex K on the release of his new album "My First Song" launched in Gympie on Friday 4th June. Containing 13 great tracks including a duet with long time friend Anita Ree.

Our thoughts go out to Coral, wife of the late Rick Aitchison. Ricko was a great friend, an amazingly talented songwriter and singer, you will be greatly missed, but never forgotten.

The Kross Kut Records Recording Studio has been busy with new albums started recently from South Australia's Graeme Hugo, Gympie's Alice Benfer (Picture Left) and Stanthorpe's Peter Salata.

Congratulations Lindsay Waddington, for making the finals in the Queensland Country Music Awards Instrumental Section with the track "Didgeri Goor"
