Country's Young Talent Kick up their Heels

A STRONG line-up of young country music artists is set to leave Newcastle fans dancing a jig when the 2-hour YOUNG STARS OF COUNTRY show kicks off at Phoenix on March 25.

Well-known country music performer BECCY COLE will feature heavily in the show, alongside DARREN COGGAN who starred as RICHIE CUNNINGHAM in the stage musical of HAPPY DAYS. Club Entertainment award winner and country music performer FELICITY completes the trio from last year's show.
