Genre: Country
Release Date: 17 October 2025
The multi-award-winning country music artist has played the long game, and it’s paid off. His upcoming fourth studio album Lucky Stars set to release on 17 October 2025 is part victory lap, part love letter, and all heart.
With a sound that fuses gritty guitar and synth textures with stadium-sized backbeats, Swift has carved out a signature space in Australian country music. It’s an approach that’s earned him 3 ARIA #1 albums, over 7.7 million streams, and 3 CMAA Golden Guitars (including 2023’s Male Artist of the Year). He’s toured with The Wolfe Brothers and Shannon Noll, played the country’s biggest festivals, and even performed at Nashville’s iconic CMA Fest.

Produced by Matt Fell and mastered by Raelynn Janicke, Lucky Stars marks a new chapter for the tattooed troubadour. Gone are the neon-soaked nights and deafening rooms but this time, the glow is softer. A porch light left on. A spotlight on stage. The smile of someone waiting in the wings.
Across twelve tracks, Swift counts his blessings and bares his heart. “Nothing Better” finds him homesick in Nashville, realising how far he’s come from fixing caravans to full-time songwriter, from forever single to building a life with his partner Simone. “Oh, Valentine”, a tender duet with Simone, serves as a love letter to their baby daughter. “Get Lost” celebrates life on the road, while “Ramble & Roam” reflects on the version of himself who once never thought he’d want to come home.
Then there’s the fun “Neon Queen” shimmers with late-night Broadway energy, “Livin’ Like We’re Loaded” revels in champagne dreams on a beer budget, and “(Hot Damn) It’s Been a Minute” salutes those friendships that survive long silences. Even “See You at the Bottom” and “Kickin’ Tires” carry Swift’s trademark warmth, finding beauty in hard times and joy in small-town nostalgia.
Described as “an Australian songwriting heavyweight” (Country Update), Swift has never sounded more comfortable in his skin. Lucky Stars is the sound of an artist who’s done the chasing, found what matters, and put it all in song. A baby in the back seat, a fire in his heart, and a stunning new record in his hands.
