Three Chords and the Truth 

A celebration of diverse voices and shared
truths through the spirit of country music

Three Chords and the Truth celebrates the inclusive spirit of country music and the unifying force of a genre that provides a platform for truth-telling and connection. Drawing from Tamworth Regional Gallery’s Collection, this exhibition explores how visual and musical artists capture the rhythms, emotions, and lived experiences that bring Australian identity to life. Through diverse voices and shared truths, the exhibition highlights the vibrance and energy that make country music so resonant.

Tamworth Regional Gallery's Country Music Collection is comprised of artworks across diverse mediums and styles that honour the genre of country. We are thrilled to present this collection as part of the 54th Tamworth Country Music Festival 2026.
