Songs & Pictures

At the ARIA Music Awards of 2012, the album was nominated for ARIA Award for Best Country Album, losing out to ''Two Worlds Collide (album), Two Worlds Collide'' by The McClymonts.

Taking inspiration from that, Cole found small cabins, usually near the ocean, river or stream, where she would fast and write. It is the first album in which Cole had written every track.

Sweet Rebecca
''Sweet Rebecca'' is the eighth studio album by Australian country music singer Beccy Cole. It was released in April 2015 and peaked at number 19 on the ARIA Charts. For the first time, Cole has written on every one of the album's 12 tracks. Cole said; "For me, every time I write songs it's a very cathartic experience, because I write about my life. I think the more honest you are, the better the song is going to be." Cole toured Australia in support of the release. Critical reception Aneta Grulichova from The Music AU said; "Banjos, guitars and incredible vocals are what listeners will find. Lyrically the album is engaging, telling the story of her journey through life; however some are very slow, though heartfelt. "Sweet Rebecca" is nostalgic as she compares her younger and older selves, while "Tea For Three" and "Broken Soldiers" are very moving. "Bumcrack" is an upbeat entertaining track – the title pretty much says it all. Cole is classic country, honest and with a sen ...

Preloved (album)

In an interview with the Newcastle Herald in December 2010, Cole said; "''Preloved'' is a bunch of songs that helped shape me from birth till now. The original list was more than 200 songs long but I managed to whittle it down to 12, albeit a hard task! There's quite a bit of country influence on the album, of course, but some of these songs weren't originally intended for a country audience. They sound pretty rootsy now."

Blackwood, South Australia
Blackwood is a south eastern suburb located in the foothills of Adelaide, South Australia. It is part of the local government area of the City of Mitcham. History The name "Blackwood" most likely comes from either the Acacia melanoxylon, also known as the Australian blackwood, which grows in the nearby Mount Lofty Ranges, or the Eucalyptus odorata, which grows in Blackwood and has dark bark. The earliest reference to Blackwood was a mention of Blackwood Vale Farm in 1847, though this is in present-day Glenalta. One of the earliest places named for Blackwood was the Blackwood Inn, which opened in 1869. In 1880 it changed names to the Belair Hotel. Belair Post Office opened on 3 April 1859 and was renamed Blackwood in 1881, when the Belair office was moved some distance away. The first land grants in the area had been made in 1840, and various churches were established throughout the 19th century, but most development in Blackwood didn't take place until the Adelaide to Aldgate s ...
