NEW SINGLE: OUT MARCH 16, 2026

'Rolling The Dice' was inspired by a trip we took to Joshua Tree, where a trailhead sign warned: “Don’t die today.” Standing among ancient pictographs and harsh desert terrain, we were reminded how easily outsiders underestimate land that others have lived with for thousands of years.
​

Back home in Australia, that same feeling lingered — when we ignore history, we’re rolling the dice.

Golden twang, iconic guitar lines, and a killer vocal.  This rolls like a runaway freight train.  - Steph Hughes (ABC Country/Triple J)

Another killer twangy howler from Melbourne's finest outlaws.

“Hotel Texas” is the title track from the debut album from Naarm alt-country act The Smith & Western Jury. The track hooks you right from those opening bars of mournful twang and lead singer Sam Lombardi’s emotive and captivating vocal. Lyrically and musically “Hotel Texas” really hit the spot and is yet another reminder of the quality of Australia’s alt-country scene.
