First and foremost, Valley Road love to sing together. Bec and Marty use their voices to draw out the emotion in a song, in a way that goes straight to the heart. The longtime friends have spent years sharing music around the kitchen table at Marty's sheep farm. Their love of folk in all its forms is reflected in their thoughtful songwriting, sparkling guitar lines and easeful vocal harmonies. Their songs are rich in imagery, containing echoes of the dry bush and rolling basalt hills of Central Victoria. The duo released their debut self-titled album in 2023, after they won a Troubadour Foundation Award that enabled them to record with producer Rod McCormack. Their album has received widespread national airplay as well as achieving Feature Album of the Week on ABC Country.![]()
