Frequently Asked Questions

Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

I grew up listening to the jazz greats on my nana and pop's record player. Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holliday, Nina Simone shaped my love of jazz music.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I grew up with both parents in a soul band so I started performing at a young age. I then moved to Sydney where I lived for 10 years and was managing events at Sydney Opera House when they asked me to sing for their jazz Sundays! Which was a dream come true!


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

I specialise in luxury and bespoke events. I love creating musical experiences for special events; particularly weddings and events with themed design!
