Kasey Chambers has a song on her debut solo album, The Captain, called "Southern Kind of Life." With its easy twang, the catch in her voice, and lyrics about trying to bring a small town lifestyle to the big city, it could easily be about the southern United States.
Chambers spent a great deal of her childhood leading a nomadic life on Australia's Nullarbor Plain, where her father was a fox-trapper during the day.
Kasey's affection for the music of other artists extends to her live show, a large portion of which is taken up with covers of songs by the likes of Neil Finn, Matthew Ryan, Lucinda Williams, and Fred Eaglesmith.

When Kasey Chambers sings, she manages the not-unremarkable accomplishment of splitting the difference between Emmylou Harris's crystalline purity and Lucinda Williams's rough-hewn emotional honesty, and the most startling thing is you sense she sounded like this before she ever heard of either artist.
Chambers' songwriting is no less remarkable, and connects in much the same way, chronicling matters of the heart and soul in a manner that achieves a genuine and unaffected beauty with just a dash of the truthful messiness that comes with being human.
Chambers is also lucky to have on hand as producer her brother Nash Chambers, who has paired Kasey with a team of gifted pickers who add color to the songs without cluttering the landscape, and captured the results in an admirably straightforward manner.

Chambers may also be at the forefront of a small Aussie retro-country music invasion.
Kasey's style is in some ways similar to Iris Dement's (except it's a little bit less hillbilly), or maybe Julie Miller (who, along with husband Buddy, helped out in putting this release together).
Chambers wrote all the songs on this release, and incredible as it may seem, she penned some of them at the tender age of 17.

By the time her debut album, The Captain, was finally released in America last fall, Kasey Chambers was already a veritable superstar in her native Australia.
But of course, none of that really mattered a whit when Kasey first arrived on these shores — an unknown, scrappy 24-year-old punk with a ring in her nose and an unlikely rep for being a star in a far away country most Americans knew very little about.
Though still not quite the household name she was Down Under, Kasey nonetheless broke a lot of ground in the U.S. in the span of less than a year.
