Up-and-coming country band, HAZEL & The Thief are thrilled to announce the release of their new single, “I Want to Own a Farm with You.”
This heartwarming and humorous track paints a vivid picture of a couple’s dream of escaping the city and building a life together on a hobby farm.
With its catchy melody and relatable lyrics, “I Want to Own a Farm with You” offers a refreshing take on country music. The song’s lyrical depth, combined with Hazel’s soulful vocals and the talented musicianship of Matt Fell (Golden Guitar and ARIA Award winner), Josh Schumann, and Luke Moller, creates a truly memorable listening experience.
“In the heart of every love story lies a shared dream. For HAZEL, that dream is a cosy farmhouse, a place where laughter echoes, love grows, and life unfolds as a family.
“When we are in love, it’s always nice to share common dreams and passions together. Even through the challenges of life, having a dream and looking into the future with that someone special, really helps a relationship grow.” Says HAZEL. “I hope that the message drawn from this song brings strength and love to couples, especially through these current trials the country is experiencing now with inflation and the cost of living.
HAZEL & The Thief’s debut single, The Olden Days, which recently charted at number 2 on the AMRAP chart after just seven days, has already garnered significant attention. Hazel, the songwriter and vocalist, is a passionate advocate for Australian music and a lover of the great outdoors. Her genuine enthusiasm for nature, animals, and country living shines through in her songwriting.
“I Want to Own a Farm with You” is available to stream on all major platforms from Friday October 18.
HAZEL is the songwriter; lead performer and the Thief are her trusty band members and sometimes her risky and naughty self! She’s known for her descriptive lyrics, catchy melodies, and energetic live performances. Her music draws inspiration from the Australian countryside and celebrates the simple joys of life. Whether it be a stripped back country folk gig at an intimate venue, or a grooving alt-country/roots foot stomper at an outdoor festival, you can always expect high energy, haunting melodies and good times when HAZEL & The Thief are on stage.
“She’s just incredible” – Fanny Lumsden

Personal Message from Hazel
For as long as I can remember, music has been my passion. Since my teenage years, I’ve dreamed of sharing my music with the world. Life took a different path when I became a mum at 18, and raising my family has been my absolute priority. But the dream of making music professionally never faded.
With countless hours, saved pennies, and unwavering support from my loved ones, I’m thrilled to announce that I’m ready to share my music with you all.
My plan is to release three singles, followed by an EP and then an album, culminating in an Australian trip/tour. This is a huge step for me, and I can’t wait to embark on this exciting adventure.
To make this dream a reality, I need your support. Please help me by pre-saving my debut single or give it a play or push on your platforms. Your support means the world to me.
Thank you for being a part of this journey.
