Laura Frank Kicks Off Busy 2026 With “God Knows I Know” Release

A rising talent with a voice that belies her years, Laura Frank has knocked it out of the park with her latest single “God Knows I Know.” This uplifting country-pop anthem is the perfect showcase for her honest, compelling vocals. The song’s all about pushing forward, which is exactly what she’ll be doing this year. Laura created “God Knows I Know” with her partner and long-time collaborator Nick Morrissey.

“’God Knows I Know’ came together in a really honest season for us. We’d been touring heavily through regional Australia, living in close quarters, juggling music, family and everything in between,” she said. “The song started as a conversation — the kind you have late at night when you’re tired but thinking clearly. We wrote it simply, just the two of us, chasing the feeling rather than trying to be clever. When we took it into the studio, the goal was to protect that rawness. We built the production around the vocal rather than the other way around. If something felt like it was distracting from the lyric, it went. There wasn’t a big dramatic moment in the making of it — it was steady, intentional and collaborative. Everyone who played on it understood that restraint was important. The process felt grounded. No overthinking, no chasing trends — just serving the song and letting the emotion lead.”

“God Knows I Know” is the first of many Laura Frank singles we’ll hear this year leading up to the release of her new album in October. She’s currently in the middle of a 60-date tour across the country with Tom Curtain. Here are all the remaining dates:

Laura Frank Does Country Her Way With “Days Gone By”

With her cropped platinum do and bold blazer, you’ve probably guessed that Laura Frank isn’t your ordinary country singer. Imbuing her sound with more rock edge than the average, she recently earned the People’s Choice Award for Most Promising Future Star at the 2023 Tamworth Country Music Festival. If you’re not already across her music, her latest single “Days Gone By” is the ideal introduction.

Laura says this song is “a thank you to the lessons learnt, the mistakes made, the journey had. Or more accurately – a ‘Thank you, but I don’t need you anymore’.”

“Over the years I put up walls and built castles around myself to protect myself from the disappointment, the failures & the mistakes,” she added. “In more recent times I’ve started to knock those down and forge a new path. Without those experiences or lessons, I wouldn’t be the person I am.”

Laura produced the video with her partner Nick Morrissey.

“From the concept, to design, hair and makeup, set, videography to editing, Nick and I have been doing it with just ourselves.”

In the video, shot in the Queensland hinterland, Lisa takes the wheel of a 1950 Chevy. She makes it look easy, but looks can be deceiving!

“It’s the first time I’ve driven a left-hand drive car… it was strange, but didn’t take me long to get the hang of it!”

Speaking of driving, Lisa will put some kays on her vehicle in the coming months as she plays shows around her home state:

11 March 2023 – Cooly Goes Country @ The Coolangatta Hotel, Yugambeh Country/Gold Coast
29 April 2023 – Twin Towns Clubs & Resorts, Bundjalung Country/Tweed Heads (supporting Chocolate Starfish)
27 May 2023 Vixens of Fall @ Caloundra RSL, Kabi Kabi Country/Sunshine Coast
