A Song for Everything

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas & blessings for the New Year! Hope your day is filled with family, fun and laughter. Keep safe & enjoy your Holidays! Love Bec x

I do love Christmas time and all that it entails including Christmas Carols and being a singer you do tend to sing alot of them.  Christmas Eve will be the last carols I sing at and that will be 6 for this year but it is always fun and wouldn't feel like Christmas without it! Do you have a favourite Christmas album? I am gathering that many would say Mariah Carey's??  Our family never really got into that album but the album that has become a tradition in our house, to play when putting up the Christmas tree and on Christmas morning while opening presents is Phil Driscoll's 1993 "Heaven & Nature Swing" Christmas Album. Such a brilliant album of Christmas classics done in swing/jazz style and Phil both sings and plays trumpet on it! Another fave is Josh Groban's "Noel" and this year Michael Buble's "Christmas".  Music is such a crucial part of this season and spreads the message of the Miracle of Jesus' birth and the gift ...

Had a fabulous weekend just gone. My sisters and I flew over to Melbourne to sing at the Our Christmas Gift Concert at Melbourne Convention Centre.  Saturday we started with a rehearsal at 9:30am and ended the day at the concert that started at 7pm.  It was such a fabulous, beautiful concert. The other guest artists were Silvie Paladino (we love her!) Kane Alexander and Daniel Beasy.  We had a fab time and it was to 4500 people so that made it more fun! We then headed back to Adelaide on Sunday morning and then sang at Olivia's (one of my sisters) work Christmas Party and then headed back to Mount Barker to sing at the Community Carols.  This was fun although the sound guy was not very capable but we got through that and had a great show including our brother joining us for a version of Jingle Bells which went over so well! So it was a fabulous singing weekend, only a couple of gigs now before Christmas break!! Bec x

My sisters and I are really looking forward to this weekend, it promises to be a big and busy one but fun also! We leave tomorrow to go to Melbourne for the Salvation Army "Our Christmas Gift" Concert at the Convention Centre on Saturday Night. Along with Silvie Paladino, Kane Alexander and others the concert will be a fabulous night and I believe the tickets are sold out so even better! We fly back Sunday to sing at a work Christmas Party and then to finish the weekend off we are performing at the Mount Barker Christmas Carols alongside Peter Coombe and Brian Gilbertson.  Starting at 7:30pm, at Keith Stevenson Park it will be a fun night and we look forward to sharing with everyone.  There may even be a guest appearance by Alex Raymond, the Raymond brother with his sisters.  Well I need to get back to things, have a fabulous weekend!
