From Shane's Web site:
Shane Nicholson has made a new album in collaboration with Kasey Chambers. The album is titled “Rattlin’ Bones” and is set for release in Australia on April 19. Overseas fans should keep their eyes peeled for international release dates soon.
The album is a collection of 14 duet-style songs, most of which were co-written by Shane & Kasey, with a few written separately. This record marks a departure for both artists from their most recent work, having a much more stripped-back, roots/country vibe, recorded ‘live’ in only 8 days. The album was produced by Nash Chambers and Shane, and is to be released through independent label Liberation.
An extensive tour is planned for the coming year. Dates can be found in the ‘Live Shows’ section, or at the brand new “Kasey and Shane” info site (
