Lee Kernaghan is a country music hero. The longtime recording artist has picked up a whopping 38 Golden Guitars at the Country Music Awards of Australia – second only to Slim Dusty. In addition to selling more than 2m albums across his decades-long career, he has also received an Order of Australia medal and named Australian of the Year in 2008 in recognition of his support for rural and regional Australia.
Last year, the musician took fans behind the scenes when he released Boy from the Bush – part concert film, part road movie. Kernaghan says the film, shot around regional Queensland, is as much “about Australia” as it is about his career.
