Kelsea, who’s known for pushing boundaries by blending pop and country music, also reflected on what makes a song ‘country’.
“If you ask me, I think a country song is a song about your life.
“To me, that sonically doesn’t mean that it has to have a fiddle on it or a banjo on it.
“I think it’s about the song and the songwriting and the storytelling that it has.”
The Country to Country music festival will be in Sydney on Saturday 28 September and Brisbane on Sunday 29 September.
