Jane Maddick grew up in Echuca and began singing with John Williams and Reg Poole. It was Reg Poole who encouraged her to enter the Star Maker Quest of 1986 at Tamworth. Jane at 18, took out the Star Maker title with a Marie Murphy song ''Rainbow Chaser''. It was her debut single. In 1987 at the Country Music Awards she won the Golden Guitar for Best New Talent. Her second single ''Boy With A Country Heart'' was one of the most played country songs of 1987. She toured with Johnny Chester for a couple of years and then recorded her album 'Still Chasin' Rainbows' on the Rich River label. She is still performing.
