AUSSIE country music artist Will Day will entertain Christmas revellers after the last race is decided at the 2024 Moree Ag Supplies and Steel twilight Christmas races on Saturday.
Day, who recently released his new single, My Kinda Crowd, will find his kind of crowd at the night function.
Day is a regular at some of Australia’s most iconic country music events, including Tamworth Country Music Festival, Savannah in the Road, Gympie Muster, Texas Country Music Festival, Winton’s Way Out West and South Australia’s Curdimurka Outback Ball.
Day’s music has been described as gritty, grounded and heartfelt and he continues to make a huge impact on the country music scene around Australia.
This year has seen extensive touring, including a performance at the Deni Ute Muster and new releases in the lead-up to Day’s second album to be released in 2025, which includes the new country rock anthem Find Myself A Dirt Road.
“With a genuine gift of storytelling, combined with compelling vocals and the ability to connect with a crowd, Will Day is fast becoming one of Australia’s premier country artists that will undoubtedly be around for years to come,” his bio says.
Moree Race Club secretary Michelle Gobbert said transport arrangements have been organised for race-day.
“For people driving, please use Webb Avenue to access the parking inside the oval next to the racecourse. There will be signs and attendants directing drivers,” she said.
