I am very new to songwriting and music production, although I have been in a number original bands over the past 30yrs, I have always sung someone else's music.  Now I doing it for myself!  For as long as I can remember I've sung. Grandma would have me sing 'music hall' songs standing on a table at 5 yrs. Mum studied at RADA, she acted in and directed many stage shows. So I followed suit & by the time I was 18 had performed in 20 stage shows.

In the 80's I was lead vocalist in 'Get Smart' & 'Pleasure Pulse' both bands based in Sydney. I've travelled to many countries including USA, India, Turkey, Thailand. I lived in London for 3 years doing 'temp' work, taking time off to travel around the UK, Ireland & Europe.  

In 1992, shortly after having my first of three children I moved to Queensland's Sunshine Coast. The music went on the 'backburner' for a while with only social jams.  In 2001 I joined 'Halkian' with Jo Peace & Bob Greaves. I was also in 'Indigo Dingo'. Both of these bands recorded CD's.

Recently, Jeff MacDonald who was the drummer in 'Pleasure Pulse' with me during the 80's, suggested I 'stand in' for their singer who couldn't do a gig due to family commitments. The gig was in Newcastle over 1000 kms away! I've been back a few times since then 'standing in' as lead singer.
