A Little Bit of This & a Little Bit of That!

It's already the middle of July, can you believe it? And how cold has it been? My goodness, I thought that when I moved down from the hills I would be warmer .....not true. I hope you've been able to keep warm though, I am sure the weather will change soon (fingers crossed!).

So we are into the second half of the year and I am in the process of locking things in and of course learning more music! A few things have happened over the last couple of weeks, including me taking on some singing students. I have been thinking about this for a while and decided that now was the time to get back to sharing knowledge and to work with people who want to better their vocal abilities. I am actually kind of excited to be getting back to it and hope that it is something that works. Singing is my passion and I love to share it with others, teaching it is just another way.

Soul Factor's mid year concert is coming up on July 31st and this year it is a rather fabulous mix of music! What else could warm you up better than an afternoon of Broadway and Gospel music performed for you??
So you don't want to miss "A Little Bit of This & A Little Bit of That"
It will be a fabulous afternoon and Soul Factor always put on a wonderful show so get your tickets today here!
 
 
Soul Factor are actually very busy at the moment because as soon as the above concert is over we go into rehearsals for our October Musical "Two from Gallilee". This is a beautiful musical about the love story between Mary & Joseph. The music is just gorgeous and anyone will enjoy it. I am playing the role of Mary and can wait to get stuck into it. Look out for more info soon!
I have also become an Auntie again in the last month to Hudson Jude MacDonald Stobie. He is absolutely gorgeous and its been so lovely to have my sister Lauren over with her two children for a couple of weeks. My niece Bella had a sleepover at my place the other weekend and we had a great time, playing, dressing up as Disney Princesses, fake snowball fighting and eating! I was exhausted haha!!  My other sister Olivia is also due for her baby so we are all waiting for that to happen as well!!

Well that's about it for today, there are a few other exciting things in the pipeline which I am very much praying come to pass! This year has been one of doings things I didn't expect to do and I am more great things!
Have a great week!

There's a bright golden haze on the meadow....

"There's a bright golden haze on the meadow....." Yes there is! Emma Knights Productions Oklahoma! on a Farm is BACK for its fourth season and opens this Thursday. If you have been reading my blog for a while, you will know that this is a special production and the role of Laurey is one I love to play! This year is the 75th Anniversary of the Production of Oklahoma! and so it is wonderful to be performing it again in the same year. Although in rather milder weather! The Farm, Four Oaks at Littlehampton is beautifully green and bursting with life. The animals are in full voice as in the wonderful cast. Immerse yourself in this unique family-friendly experience, a beloved classic with live horses, windmill, and a country fair of delicious treats & wares. If the last 3 seasons feedback is anything to go by, you will LOVE IT!! If you have seen it before, you will know what I am talking about and you should tell others. Or come along again and bring some new fr

All Shook Up!

I am blessed. A week ago I got back from an amazing singing trip. Cruising the seas, performing with amazing musicians and performers, 16 shows in 7 days, plenty of food and a ton of laughs - I am still smiling. The Cruise 'N Groove Elvis Meets the Legends Cruise was a fantastic week. I had never been on a cruise before so it was quite an experience, I loved the food and the weather was fantastic (only a bit of rockiness to contend with) and we visited Mare and Noumea in New Caledonia.  I am reasonably new to the Elvis world and so this was an eye opener for that as well but I actually loved it. Elvis fans are exceptionally passionate and in some ways quite a wonder.  I was on this trip as a backing vocalist with the Tributes in Concert Band or TIC Band and we backed all of the headlining Elvis Tribute Artists. So to the band first, what a privilege it was to perform with them. Each and everyone of them super talented (to the point, that I would get caught watching them at t

MMMBop and road trip classics 😉

Road trip singalongs are the best! Do you agree?  What are your favourite songs to sing? Do you have specific lists or eras or styles of music you listen/sing to?  For me it usually depends who I am travelling with but nothing beats a good 80s/90s song list.... So last weekend I was on a road trip to Halls Gap with my sister, my brother in law and my niece and nephew. We had a fabulous time singing away the hours to many a favourite. Of course the kids occasionally asked for a song they knew but we thought it was important we listened to the classics haha 😜 We headed to Halls Gap for NanaFest 2019! A weekend to celebrate the 90th Birthday of my Nana Dawn. Staying in cabins and tents the family came from Victoria and SA and shared a weekend of catching up, a party, jumping pillows and bonfires. I do love my family, there is a a lot of us and it is lovely to see the all the generations interacting and enjoying each others company. We had wonderful weather and my sister
