Colin continued gaining recognition and supported international acts such as Status Quo, Deep Purple, Eric Burdon and Rita Coolidge. Status Quo was so impressed they asked him to support them again on their 2000 tour.

Colin has taken his country rock music to the next stage and is a much sort after and regular performer at Australia’s Country Music Festivals. His influences include American country greats such as Tim Mc Graw, Toby Keith, Kenny Chesney, Dwight Yoakam, and rock guitar legends Stevie Ray Vaughan and Eddie Van Halen.

Colin concentrates on writing country rock material and often collaborates with Producer Michael Flanders and Chase Flanders in songwriting. Colin has just finished recording his first album with Michael in professional studios. The final product is world class and includes some of Australia’s finest country rock musicians on fiddle, mandolin, lap steel and harmonica. The album will be released in early 2006 and Colin’s first single “Looking for You” is a duet with fellow country singer Colin Finley.

Colin now resides in South East Queensland, Australia on an acre with a small recording studio where he writes and records his demos at home in the quiet surroundings of the bush, when not co writing with others.
