☆ Not just another blonde country singer ☆
Australian contemporary country artist and songwriter Sammi Palinkas blends the heart of 90s country music with the confidence of today's female country voices. Inspired by artists including Shania Twain, Faith Hill, Dolly Parton, Lainey Wilson, Megan Moroney, Carter Faith, Emily Ann Roberts & Julia Cole, she is known for catchy hooks, relatable storytelling and modern country songs that feel like conversations with your best friend.
A CountryTown National Airplay Top 50 charting artist, NSAI "One to Watch" and International Songwriting Competition semi-finalist, Sammi's debut album No Settlin', produced by award-winning producer Rod McCormack (The Wolfe Brothers, Lee Kernaghan, Max Jackson), was named one of CountryTown's Best Australian Country Albums of 2025. She has performed to audiences of more than 25,000 people, including Savannah in the Round, the televised VFLW Grand Final, multiple headline shows, and recently supported Amber Lawrence in Victoria on her "Cowgirl to Me" album tour.
Writing between Australia and Nashville, Sammi collaborates regularly with award-winning songwriters across both markets and continues to build a growing international audience. Her modern Australian country sound, shaped by Nashville influences, is rooted in authenticity, storytelling, honky-tonk spirit, life lessons, and a little country attitude.
