It's been a memorable 2025 for Kiwi country star Kaylee Bell, and she's got even more to look forward to.

She's played a music festival, she's done a collab with the Wiggles - and she welcomed her first child earlier in the year.

Bell says it's been 'awesome' seeing country music surge in New Zealand - and hearing her hits resound with Kiwi fans ahead of the Aotearoa Music Awards.

"It's just a celebration of the last few years - of just seeing this rise of country music and my career here in New Zealand, which is so important to me, it's where it all began."
