The latest release
Ernie’s first album in nine years - 18 tracks, including 14 songs he wrote for other artists and never recorded himself, plus four brand-new ones. Almost a double album.
18 tracks in all - see the full listing on the album page. Cover art and previews are on their way.
The man behind the songs
From a farm at Peak View near Cooma, Ernie Constance has spent half a century writing the songs of the Australian bush. In 1975 he sent “Things I See Around Me” to Slim Dusty, who made it a title track - the first of sixteen Ernie songs Slim would record.
A two-time Golden Guitar Awards finalist and a Hands of Fame inductee, he still runs his grazing property full-time and takes the stage at selected festivals around the country.
