Little Victories is the third studio album by Australian country music singer Beccy Cole. It was released in the month of January in 2003 and peaked at number 29 on the ARIA Charts. The album was certified gold in 2005.[1]

At the ARIA Music Awards of 2003, the album was nominated for ARIA Award for Best Country Album, losing out to Golden Road by Keith Urban.

Background and release[edit]

Cole began work on Little Victories after winning her second Golden Guitar at the 2002 Country Music Awards of Australia. The success of Wild at Heart had meant the label had increased Cole's budget, which enabled Cole and McCormack to gather renown musicians. Cole and McCormack wrote songs together across Australia, including far North Queensland, where he met Graeme Connors and his wife.[2] The album was released to co-incide with the 2003 Country Music Awards.
