Bio

Darren Colston is a Multi-Award Winning singer-songwriter, very much in the Troubadour mould. His emotive songs, delivered in fine voice, are unmistakeably Australian, unmistakeably Country and unmistakeably “Darren Colston”. A true Storyteller, Darren has that happy talent for injecting his songs straight into the heart of the audience. Delivered intimately, in his unique style and with just his voice and acoustic guitar, Darren's show is a “must see”. 

Darren's career has seen nominations in many awards, including the Golden Guitars, in Tamworth; Australia's premier Country Music Awards. Darren also took out the Tamworth Independent Artists Recognition Awards for Male Vocalist of the Year, was also awarded the Golden Medallion (Independent radio) award for South Eastern Male Vocalist of the Year after previous nominations for Best New Songwriter. 

Darren has also penned, and performed, many high-charting songs, including the number one hit duet, “Will You Stay”, The clip of which is easily found on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lluIThcvb4o, the Golden Guitar nominated “The Boundary Rider”, and several other Top-20 charting songs such as “Come By Chance”, and “On The Bend By The Willow” and “Fly Away”. 

He has recorded several albums including 3 with Golden Guitar winning producer, Herm Kovac. 

The advent of his sons reaching their teenage years saw Darren “ease off the pedal” a little, while continuing to write and occasionally release new offerings. 

With the digital platform release of new song “I Saw You Smile Today”, 2019 has seen the return of Darren, with 2020 being targeted as a breakout (again)/ comeback year. There are new singles to be released and festivals to be played and it will mark the return of Darren to travelling to rural communities to deliver what he does best, telling stories and singing songs to live audiences. Songs that “reflect love and life in Australia”. 

“… all the judges recognised his special song writing talents and enormous potential … I told him after his first Star Maker appearance that he could be another Paul Kelly and I stand by my words today” Deniese Morrison, Starmaker Judge
