Magandjin (Brisbane) singer/songwriter Toni Janke has released her new single ‘Cool Life’ (12 December), lifted from her forthcoming album due out in 2026.  The track is produced by Munk Funk Productions, featuring beautiful cover art created by Varinia Street.  Toni will celebrate with a hometown launch show on January 4 at the Cave Inn in Woolloongabba, ahead of three shows at the Adelaide Fringe Festival.

‘Cool Life’ is a reflective and soulful composition that explores the journey of life, illustrating how experiences—both challenging and uplifting—shape personal growth. Through its evocative lyrics and emotive delivery, the song conveys resilience, self-discovery, and the pursuit of purpose, offering a nuanced and inspiring perspective on life’s path.

“I wrote ‘Cool Life’ to celebrate the rhythm of life – its highs, lows, and unexpected moments. It’s about trusting the journey and being gentle with ourselves along the way. Life can be unpredictable, but that’s what makes it beautiful. ‘Cool Life’ is a reminder to breathe, laugh, and let things unfold naturally”, Toni Janke said.

Toni continues to inspire with many creative projects, including an upcoming play about her life and music called ‘Inheritance’ which will premiere in Brisbane at QPAC in April 2026.
