Nathan Taylor chats with Aussie sweetheart Jasmine Rae about her short but amazing career, her celebrity friends and her big upcoming show at Rooty Hill…

A LITTLE RAE OF COUNTRY SUNSHINE

Jasmine Rae will play live at the Rooty Hill RSL on Saturday, March 31 at 8pm. Tickets are $11. For more information and to purchase tickets call the RSL on 9625 5500 or visit www.rootyhillrsl.com.au.

“Everyone in Nashville is so talented. Everyone you meet is there because they’re so passionate about music,” Jasmine said.

“The people that work and live in Nashville write hits 9am-5pm each day like it’s a normal of! ce job, they are amazing.

“I always ! nd when I come back from Nashville I’m injected with inspiration, so I’m really excited to get back over there and do some more writing.”

The United States in the future may be more of a second home to Jasmine if she continues to win the praises of fellow big-name country artists like she has been of late.

Over the past few years, Jasmine’s been lucky enough to tour with international and local sensations including Alan Jackson, Brooks & Dunn, Joe Nichols, Tim McGraw, Dierks Bentley, Adam Harvey and Lee Kernaghan.

“I’ve been really privileged over the last couple of years to tour with so many amazing artists,” Jasmine said.

“A lot of artists like me apply for these support spots with these touring artists and for them to know who I am and pick me is just really awesome. I

don’t get all of the shows of course but just to be able to stand on the same stage as them is really something.

“Lee Kernaghan was one of those artists who took me under his wing, provided me with plenty of inspiration and hooked me up with songwriters.”

Jasmine’s future looks bright and she hopes one day, with perhaps a bit of help from her celebrity friends, that her music will be heard all over the world.

“I want my music to be global. I want it to be heard by lots of people and liked by lots of people,” she said.

“Who knows where it’s going to lead. It could be really successful in the United States one day but I’m just going to keep on trying to make my music liked by people around the world. At the moment I’m having lots of fun anyway.”

Country fan or not, make sure you save the date and join the delightful Jasmine Rae for a fun night out!

T he beautiful and talented Jasmine Rae is the hottest property on the Australian

country music scene but it won’t be long before she is talked about right around the world too.

The Melbourne-based country lass is bringing her super good looks and superb voice to Rooty Hill RSL later this month to perform tracks from her latest album ‘Listen Here’, as well as her amazing back catalogue and a few surprises along the way.

Jasmine said she can promise the people of western Sydney a country rockin’ good night.

“I’ll be doing a whole range of cool things on the night,” she said.

“A lot of my songs are very fun, edgy and up-tempo, which will get the crowd pumped. But I also like to pull out my guitar and throw in a few rock n roll and classic country covers along the way.

“I like to cover anything from Bon Jovi to Brooks & Dunn to AC/DC to Merle Haggard. I can’t say too much on what we’ll be performing on the night but what I can say is that everyone will love it.”

The last time Jasmine toured Rooty Hill was back in 2009 and she looks back on that show as one to remember.

“We toured my ! rst album at Rooty Hill RSL a few years back and it was a really awesome show,” she said.

“I love the venue out there and can’t wait to get back there in two weeks to play some new songs and hopefully ! ll the house.”

Jasmine’s stardom in Australia has been on the rise for many years. Her 2011 album ‘Listen Here’ took the country music charts by storm, debuting at number one and earning her an ARIA nomination for ‘Best Country Music’

record at last year’s ceremony.Jasmine said getting that number

one spot with her second album ‘Listen Here’ was an amazing moment that she didn’t expect.

“You kind of hope you get that kind of success but it’s always a surprise when you do get it,” she said.

“My ! rst CD back in 2008 did really well but we ended up recording it fairly quickly because I had recently won the Telstra Road to Tamworth competition. So with this second album I really wanted to do it slowly and write a whole lot more of the songs.

“The ‘Listen Here’ album is a lot more edgier and a little bit more country sounding than my last, so when I found out late last year it was nominated for the ARIA I was crying and was so excited.”

Now Jasmine’s third album is currently in the works but she admits writing a new hit record feels a bit “bizarre”.

“I’ve only just recently started writing and I’m about to go over to Nashville in April to do a songwriting trip,” she said.

“It feels quite bizarre because this last album still feels like my baby, so to be working on a new album you feel like ‘Oh no, I can’t forget about the other child!’

“There is some pressure to make it better but you also draw inspiration from what was really fun to do live on stage and what people really liked about that album (‘Listen Here’) and you try and include more of that in the next one.”

Jasmine’s upcoming trip to Nashville will be the second time she has gone there to write and record.

She said there’s no better place in the world for a country musician to go to and learn their craft.

SEASONBEGINSBeautiful music to highlight Penrith Symphony Orchestra’s year ahead

Two talented young singers from the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, Jenny Liu and Robert McDougall, will be the soloists in songs by leading Broadway composers, including Gershwin’s ‘Summertime’ and Jerome Kern’s ‘Smoke Gets In Your Eyes’.

These Broadway numbers will be heard in new orchestral arrangements by the orchestra’s Artistic Director and conductor of Saturday’s concert, Paul Terracini.

Mr Terracini said the music of Broadway, over time, has been the in! uence of so much music around the world.

“The music of the great Broadway composers and lyricists has long since transcended nationality. In a very real sense, it now represents a major part of the international cultural legacy of the twentieth century,” he said.

Rounding off the performance with some Latin-American pizzazz will be the ballet suite ‘Estancia’ by Argentinean composer Alberto Ginastera. This is a highly energetic work that integrates Argentinean folk idiom into modern classical style.

‘The Americas’ plays at the Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre this Saturday, March 17 at 8pm. Tickets are $35 for adults, $32 for concessions, $90 for families and $20 for people under 20.

Make sure you arrive early for the show so you don’t miss out on a free pre-concert talk by conductor Paul Terracini. The talk will give you an overview of what you will hear in the evening’s program. This will begin at 7.30pm in the Allan Mullins Hall.

To book or for more information call the Joan Sutherland Centre box of" ce on 4723 7600 or visit www.jspac.com.au.

Subscription packages for the Penrith Symphony Orchestra concert season are also still available. Full-priced subscriptions are $90 for 3 concerts or $120 for four concerts, with pensioner concessions, family and youth packages also available.

For more information call 1300 789 118 or visit www.pso.org.au.

T he beautiful and always entertaining Penrith Symphony Orchestra’s 2012 concert season begins this weekend

when North and South American musical traditions are brought together in this lively and dramatic performance.

The concert, entitled ‘The Americas’, will take place this Saturday, March 17 at the Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre.

Aaron Copland, often considered the quintessential American composer, is heard in two orchestral works – the familiar Shaker Melody from his ‘Appalachian Spring’, and his ‘Billy the Kid’ suite, a colourful programmatic work based on the life and death of America’s most infamous frontier outlaw.

America has attracted many immigrant composers from all musical traditions and their vital contribution to American musical culture will be heard in this concert.

Stravinsky’s ‘Circus Polka’, originally written for a circus ballet performance involving 50 elephants and 50 ballerinas, will open the program.

LEGACYLIVES ON

O ne of Britain’s biggest glam bands of the ‘70s is coming out of the woodwork to perform all their greatest hits live this

Sunday, March 18 at Rooty Hill RSL.Sweet was formed back in 1968 and

achieved major success on the British and world charts with 13 top 20 hits in the ‘70s alone.

Their popular hits included ‘Funny Funny’, ‘Block Buster’, ‘Hell Raiser’, ‘Teenage Rampage’ and the party track, still played at Saturday night discos to this day, ‘The Ballroom Blitz’.

Unfortunately over the years two of the original men of Sweet, lead vocalist Brian Connolly and drummer Mick Tucker, have passed away, but their legacy lives on in this show.

AFFORDABLE QUALITYNew Italian restaurant set to attract families

Kik’s Cafe Active

16 Lambridge Place, Penrith - 4730 1846

T hese days ! nding an affordable night out for the family can be hard to do, that’s why the good folk at Kik’s Café Active have decided to

transform their neat café by day into a ‘bang for your buck’ Italian escape by night.

Every Thursday, Friday and Saturday night of each week, Kik’s Café Active will welcome all diners for a classic Italian dinner service.

For just $25 a head diners will be treated to a two-course meal, jam-packed with food of the highest quality.

For the entrée guests will have the choice of three delicious pasta dishes.

For the main course diners will tuck into a juicy and succulent chicken breast schnitzel, complete with their own choice of two tasty sauces.

But the food doesn’t end there with hot roast potatoes, fresh garden salad and garlic bread also on offer to accompany your meals.

Quali! ed chef and State Medal winner Joe Falzon said he wanted a place in Penrith where plenty of families and people on a budget can go to eat some good old-fashioned Italian cuisine.

“I myself am a family man and I know how expensive it is out there to ! nd decent food at an affordable price,” he said.

“Kik’s Café Active at night will provide the people of Penrith an affordable Italian option that I know they will love.”

Throughout the day Kik’s operates as a café catering to the needs of the busy local area that includes the nearby Nepean Aquatic Centre.

HELPING HANDMore than $8,000 raised at OZWAC Meet & Greet night in Penrith

L ocal charity OZWAC staged a meet and greet night last Monday, where people previously unfamiliar with the charity

were able to hear about what it does in terms of assisting medical research.

The event, held at Outback Steakhouse, was sponsored by the steak restaurant and ABCOE.

Around 100 people attended, and around $8,000 was raised on the night.

The event gave people an insight into the exciting OZWAC Ball coming up later in the year, which this year will have a ‘breaking news’ theme.

On the night, The Western Weekender donated $2,000 to help kickstart the fundraising for 2012.
