Golden, Kylie’s fourteenth studio album, is the result of an intensive working trip to the home of Country music, a city whose influence lingered on long after the pop legend and her team returned to London to finish the record: “We definitely brought a bit of Nashville back with us,” she states.
The album is a vibrant hybrid, blending Kylie’s familiar pop-dance sound with an unmistakeable Tennessee twang. It was Jamie Nelson, Kylie’s long-serving A&R man, who first came up with the concept of incorporating “a Country element” into Kylie’s tried-and-trusted style. That idea sat there for a little while, with Minogue and her team initially unsure about how to bring it to life. Then, when Grammy-winning songwriter Amy Wadge’s publisher suggested Kylie should come over to collaborate in Nashville, a city Kylie had previously never visited, something clicked. “You know when you’re so excited about something,” she recalls, “that you repeat it an octave higher and double the decibels? I was like that. ‘Nashville?! Yes! Of course I would!’. I hoped it would help the album to reveal itself. I thought ‘If I don’t get it in Nashville, I’m not going to get it anywhere.””
Kylie’s Nashville trip involved working alongside two key writers, both with homes in the city.

It was then a truly international project: Golden was mainly created with African-German producer Sky Adams and a list of contributors including Jesse Frasure, Eg White, Jon Green, Biff Stannard, Samuel Dixon, Danny Shah and Lindsay Rimes, and there’s a duet with English singer Jack Savoretti. …
