Poze Magazine} Your singles from
"Moonshine," including "Moonshine"
featuring Colt Ford and "Face of the Sun,"
have already made significant waves in the
country music scene. Can you share any
memorable moments or experiences from
creating and promoting these singles?
{Jayne Denham} Working with Colt Ford was a
dream come true for me. I was a huge fan and
had always felt he would be someone I would
love to work with, as we have a similar fan base
and style of country music, so when I got the call
to say he loved the song and wanted to be
involved, it was a day I will never forget. But the
best part was that I flew to Nashville last year to
shoot the video with him. He was so much fun
and fantastic to work with a really kind, down-to-
earth guy, and the clip turned out brilliant. His
acting experience made it easy for him to play
the Moonshine badass boss. It helps that he
absolutely loves Aussies and Australia, so we
hope one day to do some shows together. “Face
of the Sun” has had a great response, and we
road-tested this at a few shows last year, and the
crowds loved it, so we can wait for the up-
coming Aussie tour to showcase it even more.
