In each episode an artist will perform live as well as conduct an interview with Murray.

The first stop is Toowoomba on Wednesday, February 20, and will be broadcast on Sky News on Foxtel and WIN from 9pm.

Singer Dami Im said she jumped at the chance to go bush.

“Regional Australia has always been very close to my heart, and I’ve been lucky enough to tour through some wonderful towns over the years,” Im said.

Murray said the series would highlight the little towns and big cities that made Australia so special.

“We are all committed to making this a celebratio­n of those places and a night to remember in every town we are showcasing.”
