Page wrote the track, Keep On, while she was on the road before she won the Star Maker title in January.

“The song is about persistence and following your dreams and not giving up, not listening to the little voices in your head and believing in yourself,” she said.

“I wrote it when we were on the road and I was observing what everyone else was doing. I wrote it just before I entered Star Maker and, when I won, it felt really relevant. I kept pushing through and all the good stuff started happening.” 

The single was produced by Andrew Cochrane at Red Engine Recording in Brisbane with the accompanying film clip shot by Filmery.

“It really suits me and my music and I’m really stoked with it,” she said.

Since her win, Page said life had been hectic between moving from Western Australia and touring and playing gigs.

“We’ve played a couple of festivals and went to Nashville which was really great,” she said.

“We were there for 10 days, so did a bunch of co-writing while I was there. The next single will be one of the songs I wrote over there.”

Page said she had also moved to Byron Bay, but hadn’t spent a lot of time at home.

“I don’t know how we would have achieved what we have over here if we had still be living in Western Australia,” she said.

“It just doesn’t stop here. It’s doable (still living in WA), but it just depends where each artist is at. It is just much easier over here, though.”

The launch show in Tamworth is at The Pub at 12.30pm on Saturday prior to Bill Chambers.

Page will be playing with her full band for her one and only Hats Off show before she hits the road with The McClymonts.

“I’m supporting them on nine dates and doing a few shows in between for my own national tour,” she said.

“The tour kicks off at Hats Off and finishes with Gympie where I’ll be playing on the Sunday (of the Muster).”

The singer-songwriter said she was enjoying her Star Maker year and wanted to increase the exposure of her music before the prize wrapped up in January.

“I’m just really using this year to get the name out there,” Page said.

“I’m hoping to build a strong fanbase, so coming out of the Star Maker year when I do my own shows and tours, people will know who I am and they will want to come out to my shows. I’m hoping this year will create enough exposure to make this sustainable for myself because there are still so many festivals I still want to play and I really want to do Tunes In The Tropics as well next year.”

Her EP will be released in January at the Tamworth Country Music Festival and then she said she wanted to record an album with her sights also set on a Golden Guitar win, which she said “would be nice”.
