50 Songs 50 Towns is a live album by Australian country music artist Troy Cassar-Daley. The album was released on 12 August 2022 and peaked at number 8 on the ARIA Charts.

Background and release

In 2021, Cassar-Daley planned to select 20 songs from his Greatest Hits 2019 Acoustic Tour. He had recorded every sound check, VIP event and show. For Cassar-Daley, every set was different which made the decision process a very hard one, landing him at 50 songs and 50 towns to share.[1]

The album was released as a 3×CD on 12 August 2022. The digital version was released as five installments of 10 tracks between June and August 2022.[2]
