Band MembersNow what exactly is a PopTart?...PopTarts is a night of female-fronted pop bands and female songwriters and has also become a community of artists sharing opportunities...get it? ..tarts ...pop? A concept put together by Amanda Easton, it brings together some of the best girl pop talent in Sydney...as well as attracting artists from all over Australia.

If you want to be a PopTarts artist and perform a set as part of the showcase, contact us here by sending us a message with your MySpace page link! You can also get us at amanda@amandaeaston.com or send your demo and bio to Amanda at: PopTarts, PO Box 907, Leichhardt, NSW 2040. Oh and yes, the boys felt left out, so every now and again we do a showcase especially for them. We call it PopStuds. The name is tongue in cheek but these boys take their pop very seriously! We have just found a new homebase - The Unity Hall Hotel in Darling Street, Balmain - so send us a message if you'd like a gig with us!

Sounds LikeThere are four to six different acts on each night, one or two usually in acoustic mode, the others as full bands, starting at 7:30pm. The nights are designed for artists to present the 'best' of their work, within a thirty minute time frame. We decided not to have a door charge so that the artists could get the biggest possible walk-in crowd and get the opportunity to build up their fan base. You may see PopTarts host Amanda Easton performing and hosting on the first Monday of each month. So far we've had other artists and bands including: Robyn Loau, moneypenny, Morgana (ex-Nitocris) & the Monstars, Fyreflies, Ezmerelda, Yolanda Thomas, Amber Rees, Maz, Evelyn Duprai, Sarah Humphries, Jo Elms, Miss Little, Living with Amy, MEATBEE, Me-Lee's Mosaic, Silvana, butterfly 9, gilli moon, Sarah McGregor, Sandy Klose, Akradia and many more through the Tarts' doors..

   About PopTarts



Want to discover some of the best female-fronted original music in Sydney? Or want to perform some live shows at great venues among a supportive group of other artists and industry folk? PopTarts is a series of music showcase events that has grown into being a community of music artists. We are committed to promoting, supporting and inspiring original, independent female (& now also male) fronted Pop. Just befriend us to find out what's happening and send us a message if you'd like a gig. Our regular home is at The Unity Hall Hotel in Darling Street Balmain and we'll be there the first Tuesday night of every month. Now "Pop" is in the broadest sense of the word - if it's popular anywhere, we'll have it. Our Sydney weekly showcases have been running for almost 7 years (about to have our big birthday bash at The Basement) and now we have a new homebase. There will continue to be plenty of special PopTarts One Night Stands, too, so to speak :)! And there's more at www.amandaeaston.com/poptarts and www.youtube.com/poptartslive, so pay us a visit. xx

Photobucket PopTarts are on the Tele! PopTarts TV is on the way - will be shown on TVS in 13 half hour episodes. Watch this space for the airing date but join us on August 21 at The Basement for the official launch. Where did it all start? Well... The girls of PopTarts6 took over the 'Songwriters Across Australia' TV show about a year ago. See the whole show right here-below -split into 3 parts. See SAA host Paul McQueen hand over this episode of his show to PopTarts Queen Amanda, to interview the girls and show snippets of their film clips and live performances. New Page 1

Oh, how annoying. It looks like such a great lineup tomorrow night but I'm double booked from your sublime to the ridiculous with Ozzy Osbourne. Nevermind...next Tuesday looks just as good.

I neglected to mention how magnifique the Chanteuse herself was the other week. It's always such a thrill seeing Ms Amanda perform. How lucky we are to have her! :)

Welcome to My World and thank you for allowing me to be part of yours. Here is a few words that won awards.

There Is Power In Dreams
By Sonia F Stevens©

Life is not easy for anyone.
Life is not forever
You have to lift your head,
Believe in the Power of Dreams.

There is strength
There is a part of us with passion
Within the passion is the Dream.

Every dream is your own creation
It is the power in your dream
That gives you passion and life’s meaning.
There is Power in the Dreams
That brings our life into reality.
So bring your full passions into your dreams.
Life is not easy
Your Dream can live forever.
Take a little time for your passions
Take a little time for your dreams
There is power in Dreams.
