The winner of the 2010 Road to Tamworth talent quest, Teneille Musulin, once drove freight trains for a living but is now off to Nashville to make her own album.
Teneille grew up in the tiny town of Karratha in Western Australia before leaving at the age of 17.
"I've been working up north for the last four years driving (iron ore) trains," she said.

28 year old Luke Austen has spent the last six years playing in Troy's band and co-wrote a song on his award-winning album I Love This Place. He's also performed alongside Jimmy Barnes, Paul Kelly and Kasey Chambers.
