McAlister Kemp At CMC Rocks The Hunter 2013

Four weeks ago McAlister Kemp got the call that Billy Ray Cyrus was unable to make his scheduled appearance at CMC Rocks the Hunter and they were happy to take the slot on the main stage, prior to Saturday nights’ headliners Big and Rich.

CMC Rocks the Hunter gives artist a chance to meet other acts who they may not have otherwise worked with. Friendships are formed and collaborations come together over a cold beer.

But most importantly, MK got to play to many of the loyal fans who voted for them and helped them win the CMC Music Award for Australian Music Video of the Year (Country Proud) and the show rocked!
