  • Music

    if its original, ill give it a go.

    i've been loving my guitar again and have been writing like a woman possessed.

    im feeling rather inspired at the moment so im running with it


    I play bass and acoustic guitar and am the bass player for the WHITE FACED MONKEYS. Original music written by our front man Matt Legge. An interesting journey through his mind... - a 5 piece consisting of
    Matt - singer/songwriter/guitarist
    Phill - lead guitar
    Kenny - Mandolin/harmonica
    Me - bass/backing vocals
    Johnny - drums
    genre type - we are alternate/folk/experimental.

    had a fun jam on friday night and came up with a side project called MUDFOOT...initial outcome consisted of a lot of beer, 3 guitars, bass and vocals. spontaneous fun...pa in the kitchen, windows wide open annoying the neighbours..that's the way we like it


    loving ALOTTA PRESHA at the moment..groovy guys and funky tunes..makes me dance


    ..also digging A FRENCH BUTLER CALLED SMITH from the gold coast..man do these guys make me wanna shake it..check them..
    i love original music..i love the creativity and delivery a group of people can conjure up..and a live gig inspires me no end..

    FAVOURITE SONGS - CURRENTLY PLAYING HERE ON MY HOME PAGE - well I've updated and added some songs that stir emotions in me...enjoy

  • Movies

    a beautiful life
    o brother where art thou
    shark vs. eagle
  • Television

    i'd rather not but do find myself on the odd occassion staring helplessly toward the big bright box opposite the couch
  • Books

    women who run with wolves - clarissa pinkola estes.

    read this book, it's soooo good.

    women - it will help you appreciate that kooky side;

    men - it will help you appreciate woman in all her glory.

    and anything by paulo coelho

About me:

Hey...Welcome to SOULBIRDSISTER.


Music is a big part of my life and I've been involved in the industry for a good 15 years.

I'm an ORIGINAL MUSIC LOVER - live original music does it for me - be you local, loco or from a long way away - if its appealing and has its own groove, chances are I'm gonna love it!!

I've been booking local gigs now for a few of years - doing stuff on my own and with ACOUSTIC LOUNGE ILLAWARRA (ALI). ALI book 2 venues at the moment - Rubys Kitchen - Stanwell Park; Mount Kembla Hotel - (check our myspace - www.myspace.com/acousticloungeillawarra)

I'm also into my fourth year of setting up gigs and artistic set ups for local festivals. I like festivals, i like them a lot..

I'm involved in the SNOWY MOUNTAINS OF MUSIC FESTIVAL; THIRROUL SEASIDE & ARTS FESTIVAL; the ILLAWARRA FOLK FESTIVAL & the FESTIVAL OF FLIGHT (07).

I'm one of two women that organise & run SPLENDOUR IN THE PUB - a local school fundraiser for our kids' schools..I've also been helping out with some of the events down at SOL STUDIOS

Tho the favourite gig i love is the gig in my own backyard...beautiful muso's, beautiful friends, annoyed neighbours and a lot of love...yeah, i can throw a backyard shindig...SLINK INTO SPRING...it's a beautiful thing ;)

But that's not all I'm about...bigger plans are in the pipeline...there's love and passion within this soul that's ready to take flight and soar...

The world really is opening up and im digging in, not pigging out...

Heres some local artists that I dig MUDFOOT, WHITE FACED MONKEYS, ALOTTA PRESHA, MOUNT GLORIOUS, SWING BOOTY, THE LEISURE COASTERS, PERCUSSION JUNCTION, SPEEDWELL, THE NICE FOLK, THE BUNGALOWS (and the not so local) MATT CAL, CRYSTAL RADIOS, WASHINGTON, JAY ALDERS and STATE RADIO - how good are they?! Check em out, they're pretty groovy...in fact check out all my friends, I know some cool cats.



Thanks for dropping in.
.....PEACE.....

Who I'd like to meet:

people that are honest, genuine, considerate, peace loving and fun..

    Hey Lana,

    Just wanted to let you know that I will be playing at the Illawarra Folk Club on Friday 2nd Oct and also the Tea Club on Saturday 3rd October.

    Both shows I am performing with Damien Neil. Maybe you met him at Illawarra Folk Festival??

    The Woohoo Revue, are back in Bulli to host a spectacular Revue Show at
    the Heritage Hotel with Big Erle and a host of circus acts on Saturday
    26 September.
    We
    are excited to host a unique night that will be a far cry from the
    average pub gig. In addition to own brand of gypsy dance music, the
    show will feature the bent Afro-Blues of Big Erle and an enchanting
    collection of circus performers, including Wendy Regan.



    Hope to see you there

    Woohoo
