Experience

I have been singing and playing piano professionally both solo and with bands for over 15 years!
I pride myself in taking requests and tailoring entertainment to suit the audience. Not every audience is the same, and that's what I love about Live Entertainment!
I worked in piano bars for years across Sydney and at sea, and since 2016 have performed in the main-stage of Cruise Ship theatres. As of 2023, I'm primarily a headline act now, and only do piano bar work back home in Sydney in between contracts.
Working with live bands and amazing production teams on the ocean is truly specia ...

Meet the Act

I got started in a small steakhouse near my family home while I was still in high school. They had a small PA and a baby grand. While my friends started working in McDonalds during high school, I was taking requests after school and eating Fillet Mignon for dinner 3 times a week! Food at gigs hasn't been the same since!
