“Sultry, sassy, cheeky – Tamara Kuldin is all that and much more. A jazz seductress with a honey-rich voice that soothes and captivates.” Australianjazz.net

Enamoured by the romance and sophistication of the golden era of song, Tamara has been captivating audiences from Melbourne to Europe with her own playful, sultry and heartfelt interpretation of songs from The Great American Songbook.

‘Australian Poetry on Piano’ takes you on a journey through the country’s much-romanticized colonial and federation periods. Anton Koritni celebrates the poets who were integral in creating a distinctively Australian cultural identity by transforming their classic verses into modern song. Not just bush ballads, other pieces explore themes of social satire, love, death, childish wonderment, and raucous boxing arenas!

Winter blues getting you down? Can’t get past those adolescent hang ups? Feeling like a legally binding relationship will cement your self-worth? Never fear! Frankly is here! So put down that smokey quartz and make your way to the chaotically healing cabaret of the season, hosted by a true therapy veteran!

Lady Sings The Blues is a story about women in song; their hurts, struggles and pain; and the transformation of that pain into music.

Featuring the songs of the greats like Billie Holiday, Etta James and Ella Fitzgerald; along with the modern day voices of Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston, Beyonce and more. You will be transported to a speakeasy in New York and into the very heart of the star of our show, Prinnie Stevens, and her experience living as a Woman of Colour.

We first met Prinnie on Season One of The Voice where she battled best friend Mahalia Barnes. Prinnie has gone on to have a hugely successful career touring Australia’s major venues and in Musical Theatre, starring in shows The Bodyguard, HAIR and Thriller LIVE on the West End.
