Firstly, I help to run an event with Astrid Jorgensen called Pub Choir, which hopefully with the ease of restrictions will return to Brisbane again. I am also super stoked to be working alongside

I grew up in the 60s, commercial radio was AM band, mono and fabulous. It seemed that everyday another new pop gem arrived: impossibly catchy, creative and groovy… well, that’s how it seemed to 10-year-old me. I was hooked on music.
