Join Gleeso on Triple M Nights as he welcomes the legendary James Reyne, who is embarking on the highly anticipated 'Way Out West' Tour alongside Ella Hooper of Killing Heidi. With the tour set to kick off on June 23, we get an exclusive preview of what fans can expect, including exciting secret collaborations that are sure to leave audiences buzzing.

However, it hasn't been a smooth journey for James Reyne, as he shares the story behind the rescheduling of the first leg of the tour. A mishap in Surry Hills left him with a broken ankle and a cracked rib, prompting him to reflect humorously, "Did I fall over, or did I have a fall? I'm at that age now where it's like, 'Aw, James had a fall.'"

In addition to discussing the upcoming tour, the conversation delves into Ella Hooper's recent record, 'Small Town Temple,' and sheds light on how this exciting collaboration between James Reyne and Ella Hooper came to fruition. Listeners are treated to a special rendition of the iconic 1992 hit, 'Way Out West,' originally performed by James Reyne and James Blundell, highlighting the enduring appeal of this timeless track. Furthermore, James Reyne expresses his admiration for the late Broderick Smith of The Dingoes, the original songwriter of 'Way Out West,' and highlights the significant influence he has had on numerous artists, despite often going unrecognized.

Gleeso takes a moment to acknowledge James Reyne's immense contribution to Australian music, applauding his role in bringing local talent to the forefront, even amidst the domination of international artists in the market. We also explore the enduring popularity of Australian Crawl's iconic anthem, 'Reckless,' with Gleeso noting that every time he witnesses James Reyne perform it live, the crowd's fervent sing-along is twice as loud, a testament to the lasting impact of the song across the country.
