Sing for me......

Teaching singing lessons and vocal coaching was something I only really got into last year. Of course I have dabbled with it over the years, through taking groups, musicals, people asking etc and you can not be around music as much as I am and not share with people. But last year I took a step and took on some students. What had been holding me back was that i don't really play the piano, I can play for myself but for others .....no! 😅
But I realised that I was holding back things I had learnt and could share with people and that was selfish really. The funny thing was when I did step out I really enjoyed it.

I like to think of my style of teaching as pretty simple. I want to know that I can do what I am teaching and I can then explain what it is like for me. Which I find does help people understand it and or not feel silly when I suggest something just as silly or do it along with you. Growing up in a performing family I feel there is a lot that I learnt naturally and if not it was taught to me from a very early age but this is not the case for most people and so it is interesting to try and teach something I find natural to others. Pulled back and simple.

It has been really wonderful to see students improving, getting excited that they are able to do something now. To see with just a simple shift, things suddenly makes sense. Then because of that other growth happens such as confidence and belief. So I am grateful to see this happen.

I am still taking students, so if you are someone wanting to improve your voice or maybe increase what you can do with your voice or maybe you just want to learn some technique maybe I can help you!

Skype/online lessons are also available.
Contact me through here or via my Music facebook page if you are interested. I'd love to hear from you.


So there is a lot going on at the moment. I spoke about my Fringe show in an earlier post and it starts next WEEK!!! I am looking forward to sharing it with people and actually getting to it. 35MM: a Musical Exhibition is a SA Premiere and blends photography exhibition with music and is set in the beautiful Cathedral Room of the Adelaide Oval. I encourage you to get tickets and come along!

Also Aida rehearsals have started!! This is also an SA Premiere and a really lovely musical. Plus I am being joined onstage with some of my Soul Factor pals including my dad who is playing my Father again haha!! Earlybird Tickets are on sale already and available at http://www.hillsmusical.org.au/

Oh and one last thing, I do have a YouTube channel that you might be interested at looking at. I am trying to add songs and performances to this more often so you can see what I have been doing. I did just the other day add me singing in the Musical Big Fish, which if you have been reading my posts, know that I LOVED being a part of that musical last year and this is one of my favourite parts of the show and songs that I sang "I Don't Need a Roof" . So enjoy :)



Have a fabulous week!!

Happy Birthday Songs!

So I'm now 31! I can not believe a year has already passed since my 30th and all that was going on at that time. There I was last year thinking "Oh my goodness, I'm in a new age range I've hit 30" and that year has already past. Well, I can say that being in your 30's is not bad actually and if anything I am happy I'm here, yes minus a few things I thought I would have gained in that 30th year but I am happy, healthy and surrounded by those who love me so I am extremely grateful. This years birthday was a lot less flashy than last years (thank goodness because that was a lot of work haha!) but lovely all the same. It began actually on Saturday, my sister Liv had organised a breakfast and surprised me by inviting some of girlfriends to join us. The café we went to was Harvest in Mylor, South Australia. It was really adorable and encourage you to check it out some time. We sat outside in gorgeous weather, under the tress and enjoyed each others company and...

"Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain"

I can't believe I am sitting here already a week after the opening of Emma Knights Productions Oklahoma! on a Farm and we have finished another fabulous season and I've already jumped into rehearsals for the next couple of things. But I wanted to take a moment to again talk about this show and to say how grateful I am to be able to perform like this. This season of Oklahoma was HOT!! in many ways but also "literally" haha!! The temperatures of the weekend were in the high 30's and Saturday was so humid, but the amazing cast, crew and orchestra pushed through it and the performances was fabulous. And thats not just me saying that but the audiences who came were again raving at how good it was and what I find wonderful is they all sat through it, in the heat themselves but did not complain. There is something about being on the farm, if you have never been to Four Oaks Farm in Littlehampton I encourage you to (even better if it's for a show I'm doing...

Be the Hero of your story....

Well after around 4 months of rehearsal the time has come for us to open "Big Fish" the Musical. Tonight is the Preview before tomorrow Opening Night and I am so excited to share it with audiences and bring the SA Premiere to Adelaide! You may have gathered from other posts that I LOVE this musical and the role that I am playing. Of all the lead roles I have played, this one, Sandra Bloom, is a special one. But I think that has a lot to do with the cast, production team and all those involved with putting this show on. It has been such a wonderful rehearsal period creating something beautiful and for that I feel very blessed. I get to sing some beautiful songs, be a mother and grandmother and have red hair! Plus you don't want to miss my blue Sparkly dress!! If you are trying to decide whether to come to it as you don't know the story or music I encourage you to take a leap and come along. This music had me from the first listen and the story is so full of heart ...
