[edit | edit source]

Several singles were released between 2018 and 2020. In September 2021, Georgia State Line released their debut studio album In Colour. The album was recorded by James Cecil in the Macedon Ranges and documents Delves' journey. Delves said "These songs really embody what it means to move through the pains and joy of inevitable change."[4] In a 4 out of 5 star review, Cat Woods from NME said "In Colour is a fresh, Australian take on a time-honoured sound that harks back to the blues-and-rootsy Americana of the '50s and '60s."[1]

The album was nominated for Best Country Album at the 2022 ARIA Music Awards.[5]
