Working on StarZ & GuitarZ
Helloooo WOW!!! I have had such an exciting couple of weeks! In between a relaxing holiday to Palm Cove, performing live with my band every weekend and working at @mooloolabamusic ... I have spent my evenings creating something very special to share from songwriting to recording, mixing and mastering, to getting creative with designing visuals, photoshoots and filming music videos!! I have absolutely loved the project of independently creating my debut album StarZ & GuitarZ. So much has been happening behind the scenes and I am beyond excited to introduce you to the magical world of StarZ & GuitarZ

2020 ReflectionZ
2020 | The year I followed my heart The year I finally overcame a 3.5 year battle with severe vocal nodules and healed my voice naturally with no invasive surgeries. The year I overcame depression and anxiety and the mental repercussions of loosing my voice (where I used to place all my self-worth and identity).
The year I moved back in with my beautiful baby sis and brother so that we could be a family again, after I had left home so young to follow my dreams. The year I took up regular walks along the beach and aerial yoga! I learnt how to do the splits. The year I FINISHED writing my debut album and started recording at the dream of a studio Yama-Nui. I collaborated with over 30 incredible local musicians and artists on my original project and launched the first three shows for StarZ & GuitarZ held at The Tanuki Lounge, the Caloundra Mini Music Festival and at Solbar, supporting the grooviest dudes in town: Thump Funk. The year I stayed at VersacΓ© with CDawg and went back to old good habits like reading, journaling, having hot bubble baths and early nights. My love for CDawg quadrupled as it always does and I got spontaneous, matching tattoos with my 3 besties Ehehe!!
Iβm heading into the new year with a sweet new job I absolutely love at Mooloolaba Music!! AND WATCH OUT 2021 I have my very own 10 track album, full of incredible new music that I have created AND I will finally be releasing it out into the world !!!!!
