Fresh of performing in Tamworth and the release of her latest single, Collie’s Kate Hindle has been announced as one of the performing acts at the Boyup Brook Country Music Festival next week.
The festival will continue a busy start to 2019 for Hindle, who performed at the Tamworth Country Music Festival last month.

The single debuted at number five on the iTunes country music charts, while a music video for the single was released today.
The Boyup Brook Country Music Festival, at which Hindle is a regular performer, will allow WA audiences their first opportunity to hear the new single performed live.
Hindle will play a 25-minute set at the the Music Park on the banks of the Blackwood River, opening the show from 12.30pm on Saturday, February 16.
