My Jazz Singing Story: How it Changed My Life & Can Change Yours Part 1
In this episode, I share my personal story of how I discovered my love for Jazz and ventured into the world of jazz singing and how it has profoundly impacted my life.   While my journey has been anything but linear, there were signs along the way that hinted at my affinity for this genre.   It changed my life and can also change yours – if it hasn’t already!   The seed was planted at seven when my dad bought me a cassette tape of Nina Simone – the music did something visceral for me.   I also talk about how Miles Davis – in particular – his Workin’ album got me through homesickness when I lived in London.   I didn’t mention that my love for Theolonius Monk and my fraudulent piano playing ability in rock bands prompted me to get jazz lessons from Gabriel Latchin – a young, earnest jazz student at the Guildhall who is now Internationally renowned.   Gabriel encouraged me to sing jazz, leading me to audition for Australia’s best jazz tertiary program here in Brisbane, Jazz Music Institute, at the age of 27.   I made this episode deliberately short – a new thing I’m trialling for solo episodes.   Also, the next Private Podcast Live episode in the Fearless Singers Facebook group will be live on Thursday at 7:30 pm!   I will discuss key signatures in music and how we work out our best keys, like a well-cut outfit. Come on over! By the way, in this episode I mentioned a listening suggestion playlist – I made one for you on Spotify.
