Hey, folks.
So, here is the news that went out to newletter subscribers yesterday. My big news seems to have been a while coming, but I haven't been dangling this 'news carrot' for so long on purpose - it's just that confirmation of certain events just came through late yesterday.
I'm going to be releasing my DEBUT SINGLE next week!
It's called 'Sand', and it's an upbeat & harmony-rich song that I cowrote with Steve Parkin (Autopilot, Basement Birds, and solo) and Ken Summers (my poet partner).
But WAIT - that's not all...
I'll be launching the song with a band in a performance on Channel 7 Perth's TELETHON 2013!!
I'll be on around 1:30am on Sunday morning, in amongst a huge lineup of amazing artists this year. All I can say at the chance to do this is superWOW-level exciting for me, and I'm honoured to have a spot on this iconic charity show. :)
Making the performance even more special, I'll be joined by good friends onstage, including Cindy Dean, my former Juliet's Diary duo partner. This is the first Telethon that Cindy will be missing her late dad, the wonderful Peter Dean - otherwise known as Mr Telethon through the '70s and '80s in Perth. Many watching Telethon will remember him. Peter was a super funny and witty raconteur and entertainer and a loving family man who had a great sense of fun that he passed on to his kids and grandkids. The band and I are going to wear 70's style clothes in his memory, as well as in a nod to 'Sand's influences. I can't think of a more worthy excuse to get dressed up and think Peter would have approved :)
I'll also be donating all proceeds of digital sales of 'Sand' in October to Telethon. I hope it will to be available for download late next week so that you can support the very worthy cause of Telethon.
Subscribe to my newsletter and I'll keep you all posted on happenings such as my EP, as well as a special surprise downloadable music treats I have in store! :)
