NEW ALBUM OUT NOW "RESTLESS WIND
The new release from LANA ROSS is Restless Wind; a delightful album, mostly of her own composition, complimented by the talents of the LBS team. Lana’s sweetly caressing vocals enfold the listener through songs both traditional and modern, but definitely all pure country. The Bush is honoured with tracks Chorus Of The Bushland, Calling You Home, Little Western Gully, and the SHIRLEY THOMS classic A Cowgirl’s Life. Lana puts the tongue firmly in cheek with the sassy Cat Yella; dubious advice to attract the blokes at the Machinery Field Day. Male artists seem to need a ‘train’ song and for the females it’s a ‘river’ song. Lana’s is The Murray River Song; a soft reflective track. The Walls is a lovely sad track written with SHAZA LEIGH. The album closes with the title track The Restless Wind. It is a beautiful adieu to a beautifully crafted album. Lana Ross is a talent Australian Country Music can be proud of.LBS Music LBS123CD

Lana's second album
Lana Ross has released her second album – Restless Wind – a follow-up to her debut work released, Stories To Tell, released in Tamworth in January 2008.
Two singles have been released from the new album, Little Western Gully in Australia and The Walls to the international market.
Lindsay Butler produced the album for the Mackay Queensland based recording artist. Lindsay also produced Lana's first release.
"Lana obviously felt the pressure to produce a second album," a spokesman for LBS said.
"Lindsay and I felt the pressure to deliver a great second album after the success of the first album," Lana said. "It was Lindsay's cool head and meticulous production that has made this a fantastic album."
Seven of the songs on Restless Wind were written by Lana. Other tracks include a Shirley Thoms classic and selected songs from songwriters Ben Jacobs and Manfred Vigars who have contributed a track each, both co-written with Shaza Leigh.
"I'm excited about the co-write with Shaz (The Walls)," Lana said. "The result of this song, is magical! It was a first choice when we discussed releasing a track overseas. (It's) a very special song to write having recently lost a grandparent leaving behind his widow of 50plus years and to see her waiting as if behind... a very heartfelt emotion."International feedback for The Walls already received indicates the song is receiving strong airplay and is among the favourites of most of the DJs on the media boards. "But it's still a bit early to tell," Lana said.
"I love what I'm doing. The first album taught me not to be afraid! To be myself! I have learnt many industry lessons over the past two years and I'm sure I will learn a few more over the coming years."
