GLuckstadt!
I’m loving it here! after a lot of busy-ness and running around and also massive changes, moving house, touring all over the place etc etc.. it’s good to finally sit still for a little while.. and soak in the sun (zonnen shine) SHine!
I also love hanging out with the family and new friends here and the Puppy!!! đ so cute!! in the Beautiful backyard garden!! We had fruchstuck (breakfast) in the Garden the morning after the gig with everyone!! Check out how much food there is!! I love German Breakfast!! they really know how to enjoy food!! đ
I wasn’t planning on taking a break now – I was planning on continue-ing and meeting up with Jaimi Faulkner on tour and playing a few more gigs as guest backing vocalist and opening a few more shows.. then going back to Berlin and playing a show there.. then up to Hamburg again.. and continue-ing on touring around Germany..
I played with the gorgeous Coby Grant www.cobygrant.com in a 400 year old house / barn to a lovely crowd!!
But then I got a little bit sick.. had a sore throat.. and the snotty nose came.. and the fever.. and chills.. so I said to self ‘OK SELF.. do you want to keep pushing on through? or have a bit of a break for a few days??? ‘ after much deliberation of all the options a), b), C).. .. and keeping an open mind and open plan.. I chose to take a few days off and relax in this lovely little town.. and I AM LOVING IT!! sometimes I forget how good it is to take a break!! and enjoy where I am!! and SURPRISE surprise.. I am starting to feel better !! throat is clearing up.. head getting clearer.. noice.. ( in an Aussie Kath & Kim accent)
I was lucky enough to be invited on tour with my great friend Jaimi Faulkner www.jaimifaulkner.com who is touring his new single release ‘In my fathers’ boots’ and getting radio play & TV appearances in Holland!! and we played some great shows in Dachau, Torgau, and Ingolstadt!! at a couple of festivals.. with lots of people!! it was so much fun to be on tour with a band again and to be a singing dancing backup vocalist alongside the awesome Jacinta Caruana (fellow Aussie singer songwriter from Melbourne – check her out www.jacintacaruana.com ) I also got the opportunity to open for JF at the festival Jazz in Allen Gassen – check out the crowd!! oh yeah!! ( cue dreams coming true bit!! )
In the last few weeks I have also played at one of the most beautiful intimate festivals in Aarhus, Denmark!! the Melodica Festival Aarhus!! I met so many wonderful people and great musicians, there were sing-a-longs all weekend long, good vibes and general soul-full-filling times!! I had a great host Ole’ who took me to see the Queens’ summer palace and gardens!! as well as taught me how to say a few things in Danish ‘du a e smuck tre’ (you are a beautiful tree) đ which I managed to sing in one of my songs..

“Ya know, this month we’ve been talking about the sacred art of business. About how much it can change our lives, how sacred it can be, how transformative it can be.
If business is the thing that’s calling your spirit, I want to help you. I want to help you be the brightest shining star you can be. I want to help you to help SO many hundreds and thousands of souls. And I want you to earn a really beautiful income from it – whatever amount is the perfect fit for you. ”
