It was great to be playing drums at the @colemansmusic re-naming event with the @cranbournelionsconcertband. It was our first gig back since lockdown!

I love this @melbukefest 2021 “not a festival” t-shirt so much. I especially love the text on the back. Bring on MUF 2022!

Thanks @melbukefest for putting on such an amazing event last night and for inviting me to perform. It was so great to play for real life people again! I loved seeing our local ukulele community back together again and watching so many beautiful and fun performances. A fantastic night!

I’ve got a gig!!! ❤️ First one back in a year - how do microphones work again?! I’m really excited to be performing in front of a real life audience at the @melbukefest open mic concert this Saturday night. MUF was my last gig before lockdown, so it’s kinda cool that they are my first gig out of it too 👍 I can’t wait to get my hands on their “not a festival” t-shirt for this year too. I think it’s absolutely brilliant.

It’s crazy to think it’s been a year since my last live in-person gig! Here I was a year ago today with @sallysukulele as we collaborated together on some jazz standards at @melbukefest - it was also the weekend that the world shut down. It’ll be so great when events like these return one day ❤️

When the house lights went down there was an excitement in the air. The conductor was illuminated in a soft glow from an overhead light, his baton poised and ready. The strings led the charge, with a sound both beautiful and full. My first notes of the night were three loud crash cymbal hits at fortissimo - a bold re-entry to ensemble performance! To be honest, I felt a little misty at times - I’ve missed this. I was playing on a big stage with 50 musicians in one of my favourite theatres to an audience of over 200 people. It’s been such a long time since we’ve had a live community music performance like this - and it felt really, really good! (This photo was from the rehearsal 😉)

A tambourine night is a good night ❤️ Final rehearsal for the gig with Casey Philharmonic Orchestra this weekend. It’s on at Bunjil Place this Saturday night 7:30pm. I’ll be up the back hitting stuff 👍

Current view! I’m looking forward to this concert with the Casey Philharmonic on Saturday 13th March. It will be at Bunjil Place in Narre Warren at 7:30pm. The program is great with some really fantastic classical pieces 👍

Dual notes, ledger lines and accidentals at fortis

Dual notes, ledger lines and accidentals at fortissimo (very loud) throughout this piece and I haven’t played a proper glockenspiel part since pre-COVID. What could go wrong 🤣 #mightneedtopractice

Literally her favourite thing in the world. If the uke is out, she’s either sitting on my lap purring away as I strum, or she’s sleeping in the case like this. If the uke is not out, sometimes I’ll catch her curled up next to the case, or even laying her head on top using it as a pillow.
