In an exciting nod to the past, country music singer-songwriter Max Jackson is breathing new life into a beloved piece of Australian music history. Jackson has re-recorded the iconic 1980s jingle “January – Country Music Month,” infusing it with her signature contemporary sound. The updated anthem comes just in time for the highly anticipated Tamworth Country Music Festival, which kicks off later this month.
The original jingle, a nostalgic tune that became synonymous with Australia’s love affair with country music, was first released in the 1980s to promote Tamworth as the heart of the genre in the Southern Hemisphere. For decades, the song evoked memories of country music legends and celebrated the artistry that has defined the Tamworth festival.
Max Jackson, known for her emotive storytelling and dynamic vocals, has put her unique stamp on the classic tune. Blending modern production with a heartfelt respect for its roots, Jackson’s reimagined version promises to captivate long-time fans and introduce the anthem to a new generation.
Tamworth Regional Council and festival organisers have embraced the project, incorporating the new version into this year’s festival marketing campaign. The track will also play a key role in promotional material, television ads, and live events throughout January.
The 2025 Tamworth Country Music Festival runs from January 17 to January 26, featuring over 700 artists across 100 venues. With Max Jackson at the forefront of this year’s celebrations, the festival is set to honour its rich heritage while embracing the evolving sound of country music.
