Buckingham's fourth studio album Beautiful Machine (March 2026) debuted at number 35 on the ARIA Charts.[4]
In a 2022 interview with Music Festivals Australia, Buckingham said, "I've been singing for as long as I can remember… There are recordings of me at five years old, making albums with my Granddad, who was a singer and actor... My uncle gave me a hand-me-down guitar for Christmas when I was 14 and it suddenly just made sense for me to put music to the words I’ve been writing. It’s always felt natural to me, even when I began performing and was terrified to be in front of an audience."[5]
