After wowing crowds at Tamworth Country Music Festival last month, local favourite Clancy Pye is back home in Orange for a very special solo show on Friday, May 29 at The Agrestic Grocer.

Taking part in Arts OutWest latest “Live & Kicking: Meet the Songwriter” sessions, the two-time Toyota Star Maker finalist will be sharing the stories behind some of her favourite original tunes.

Born and raised on a farm near Oberon, Clancy was surrounded by a musical family and first picked up a guitar at the age of only six. She has since spent most of her life performing in front of audiences, starting from early days when she joined brother Mickey (a Toyota Starmaker winner) on stage as the “Party Pyes”; and later holding her own on stages around the Central West and beyond.

Clancy has performed at a number of large festivals around Australia including CMC Rocks and The Gympie Music Muster as well as internationally at Canada’s Big Valley Jamboree and in the United States at the CMA Fest (Nashville).

Clancy also has a lifetime of songwriting experience and, in 2020, released her debut self-titled EP. Her first two singles “Get Lost” and “Heaven Can’t Wait” both debuted at Number One on the iTunes Country Singles Chart which gained her extensive support from new fans and radio stations nationwide.

Clancy is poised to record her first full-length album from a wealth of previous material to more than 120 new songs written during the past 18 months.

Discover the stories behind Clancy’s music on Friday, May 29, at The Agrestic Grocer.

Tickets are available online from The Agrestic Grocer. Doors open at 6pm.
