Lane Pittman, once a semi-finalist on The Voice Australia, is now hitting arenas alongside US country sensation Luke Combs—a full-circle moment for the Australian artist, who covered Combs in his blind audition. Mentored by Keith Urban on The Voice, Pittman earned praise for his authenticity, a trait that has continued to define his career.
The timing couldn’t be better for both Pittman and Combs, as country music is experiencing a surge in Australia. Spotify reports a 73% increase in country music streams over the past two years, with Australia now ranking fourth for listeners discovering the genre.
Pittman, freshly named New Talent of the Year at the Golden Guitar Awards, is riding high on this momentum. “I’ll be touring with Luke Combs for his full Australian leg and I’m looking forward to hitting all the big cities and performing for this new wave of country fans,” he said.
Pittman shares insights into the booming country music scene in Australia, his experience touring with Combs, and the exciting road ahead.
