Good Corn Liquor delivers their unique blend of music in a way that leaves you smiling and wanting more. It is infectious, entertaining, and heartfelt.
Ben, Nick and Murph have been playing music together since their early teens and have performed well over 600 shows together. Good Corn Liquor was started by accident over a few chords and quickly evolved into a sought-after act. The band effortlessly blends country, blues and bluegrass and have been entertaining crowds across Australia since 2011 with their honest and fun approach to live performance.
The band recently finished recording their third studio EP, written and recorded by the band in Newcastle, NSW and mixed and mastered by Steve Newton (John Williamson, Troy Cassar-Daley, Alan Caswell) at ENREC Studio, Tamworth. The lead single, The Junction, with its catchy hooks and honest lyrical status, shows a definitive return to form for the band and announces that they are back.
