COX, Kristy Breaking New Ground

Kristy Cox

Country & Bluegrass Artist from Mount Barker, SA

Australian native now living in Nashville

From a young age, Kristy Cox captured plenty of attention with her distinct singing style and positive nature, resulting in opportunities to open shows for major acts and making regular festival and television appearances across Australia, Europe, and the US. In 2015 she was selected as an official showcase artist for the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) where she began drawing the attention of music industry professionals.

With a string of #1 hits on radio and country music television in Australia, Kristy has also made headway on the US bluegrass charts in recent years. Her last two projects, produced by Grammy® winner Jerry Salley, were very well received, with the latest making strong appearances throughout 2016 on multiple album and songs charts. 2017 kicked into high gear when she won “Bluegrass Recording of the Year” from the Country Music Association of Australia, and she also made the IBMA Awards second ballot in several categories.
