About the Artist
Heat rising off paddocks. Sorghum fields moving in dry wind. ‘Red Dirt Road’ is an up-tempo traditional country single from Gunnedah-born Billboard #1 co-writer, Anthony Snape, inspired by his share-farming upbringing in regional NSW. Following the hometown momentum of ‘Big Love in a Small Town’, this pedal steel and upright bass-driven release strengthens his Australian country positioning and launches a coordinated 2026 campaign of country-focused singles. "I grew up on properties my parents share-farmed around Gunnedah. Red dirt wasn’t an aesthetic for me, it was childhood. This song came quickly, almost like I had to jump to catch it. It’s about falling in love in the simplest place possible, wide sky, dust in the air, and nothing but land around you."

After co-writing a Billboard #1 hit, you’d think Anthony Snape would feel like he’d finally "arrived." But for the Gunnedah-born singer, the real work is just beginning. His new single, "Red Dirt Road," draws on his youth in rural New South Wales, serving as the first step in a massive plan to release years' worth of music.
