From the vibrant heart of Sydney, Australia, Jack Nolan has been captivating audiences with his unique blend of songwriting and performance since the mid-1990s. His music is a tapestry of “mysterious and shimmering chords,” affectionately known as ‘Darlinghurst Country’ – a captivating fusion of folk, country, rock ‘n’ roll and ambient atmospheres. Nolan’s passion for both intensely charged electric guitar and delicate finger-picked acoustic work creates a sound that is both raw and refined.

Recent years have seen a prolific run of albums, including 2018’s Our Waverley Star, 2021’s Gabriel, 2023’s Jindabyne, 2024’s Songs for Hemingway and 2025’s The Lonely Petunia – his fourth collaboration with Nashville producer and musician Justin Weaver.

Now Nolan returns with something more immediate and stripped back.

“Saving It Up for a Sunnier Day”, released on 14 August 2026, is the first glimpse of Tell It to the Birds – Live Acoustic Sessions, a five-track live EP recorded at Curb Studios in Nashville with Justin Weaver.

Two musicians. One room. One take. No overdubs.

Built around voice and acoustic guitars, the sessions capture the songs as they were played in the room – intimate, unvarnished and alive.

Tell It to the Birds – Live Acoustic Sessions** arrives 13 November 2026.**
