“A voice of an angel but a little more rock n roll “ Jeff Martin (The Tea Party)
Georgina was born quiet late in her family; she was always the little girl knocking the doors to sneak into her brother and father’s bands while they were rehearsing and playing live. While most of her young friends were listening to top 40 radio tunes Georgina listened to 60’s, 70’s, 80’s pop. The Carpenters and ABBA were played constantly. She found it hard to relate to people her own age so lunchtimes were spent a lot playing piano in the old music rooms. Her music teachers encouraged her playing by ear method, as she hated to play known songs, resulting in writing her own. 
Georgina joined an Acapella Choir aged 13 that lead to TV performances, CD recordings and a tour of New Zealand. Georgina is also known for hosting an independent music TV show, modelling, musical theartre and live band performances in Australia and overseas included opening for Jeff Martin. Her vocals have also been used in radio advertising and backing for artists such as Xonia (Romania) 

2006 Georgina was introduced to Danny Simcic producer at Attitude in Rhythm. She called herself “Platinum Lover” and released 2 dance tracks she co wrote “What I Want” & “Sugar Sweat”. Both songs received radio and club play in Australia and other territories. Georgina was then encouraged to develop her own sound and set up a home studio. Danny had fame as drummer and co writer in the band Real Life that reached international success with songs “Send me an Angel, Catch me I’m falling, God Tonight”. It was a perfect union at the time with his unique productions methods and understanding of patience and determination in this industry as a singer songwriter. 
Georgina released her Debut single “The River” along with a beautiful music video and club remix’s . She released Album “Matters of the Heart” in 2015 and toured Australia and Europe.

I am a vocalist/guitarist currently based in Townsville QLD Australia.  Born and raised here, however I spent some years in Gisborne, New Zealand recently and came out of my songwriting shell so to speak.  Forming a band with my brother in law and younger brother and later bringing in my flatmate on the bass. We went by the name Dispark, and I like to think we did our thing quite well.  From progressive metal and rock, to performing my own styled ballads.  

Dispark formed from a love to Tool, Metalica and Punk Rock.  Which then evolved into us writing our own tunes and adding them into our covers sets in public.  Later becoming stable enough for us to play gigs solely as original musicians.
The track Robert's Sister was written by myself with the accompaniment or Noema TeHau, Robert Porter and Zak Gladwin, recorded under the name GAMBIT
Now I am slowly working on some originals on my own, and studying Audio Engineering.

Looking forward to working with other people via soundcloud.  So, far I have recorded with a friend in Melbourne Sam Goudie and am looking to colaborate with others to hone my engineering skills.

Empty Tin is the much anticipated first single release from Nicole Brophy's latest album. With natural onstage charisma, bangin' guitar skills and come-hither-smokey vocals it's not hard to understand why she was kidnapped by Kate Miller Heidke's band for a few years! Lucky for us Nicole is now bottling that "whiskey soaked" voice into some darn tasty brew that deserves to be heard and shared.

This catchy as hell single drives along with vintage guitar sounds and cheeky 60‘s backing vocals as it lays down the hard truth that comes from pure frustration. Empty Tin is a single that speaks to all that crave so much more from life...and love.

Nicole Brophy has a voice and style compared to the likes of PJ Harvey, Lucinda Williams & La Roux. ​Stylistically it fits somewhere between gritty rock, alt-country hoedowns and moody, bluesy numbers brought together by a raw charismatic rockin’ earthy voice and boundless energy. She has an undeniable presence on stage always moving, engaging the crowd, playing acoustic or electric guitar and just driving her passion into her songs.
Growing up on the South Coast of NSW and travelling across Australia and overseas Nicole has performed to thousands at some of Australia's biggest music festivals as front woman of her previous band Dirty Lucy or as guitarist/backing vocalist in the Kate Miller-Heidke touring band.
In previous band Dirty Lucy, their highly acclaimed debut album Dark Green was released in 2003 to rave reviews and were invited to perform at SXSW & Shepherds Bush Empire in London. The follow up album Music, People Cities, Lights & Darkness was released in 2006 while touring relentlessly to every corner of the country for over 4 years solid.

Nicole is currently completing the finishing touches on her latest album recorded in a farmhouse in the Southern Highlands of NSW co-produced by Syd Green.

"Nicole Brophy has a voice possessing everything that is good about country singing, with the grunt and raunch of the great female rock tradition thrown in for good measure” Rolling Stone

"Nicole has a voice that fits somewhere between Ricki Lee Jones, La Roux & Beth Orton. Her Alannah Myles-style whiskey molasses voice simultaneously welcomes a crowd with a bear hug and slaps a shot in front of them to signal the start of an adventure". Radar

Úna Heera is a songwriting collaboration that was formed by good friends living in the creatively flavourful neighbourhood of West End, Brisbane. The name was inspired by Dawn's great grandmothers, Una from America and Heera from India, two incredibly brave women who conjured so much strength through difficult times. 

The songs and stories of Úna Heera were born from harrowing personal experiences and inspired by loved ones, past and present. Stories of survival, friendship, love, solidarity and healing. This magical ensemble of singer/songwriters and musicians includes: Dawn on lyrics & keys, Kris Field on lyrics & accordion, Hughie Doherty on guitar, slide & ukulele, Daryl James on banjo, mandolin & guitar, and Sam Reynolds on bass.

Born of love, myth and traditional folklore, Day of Embers is a duo of Celtic and seafaring rhythms interlaced with age-old tales of love, loss, survival and justice. Combining the multi-instrumental talents of singer-songwriters, Welshman Daryl James, and Dawn, a bewitching vocalist of Canadian, Irish and Indian descent, DoE weaves spectacular harmonies with banjo, autoharp, tin whistle, guitar and mandolin. 
While Daryl and Dawn were born on opposite sides of the globe, their musical roots transcend borders, coming together in a rich tapestry of sea shanties and rousing ballads. Each of their songs is a chapter of an epic journey featuring fictional characters whose love prevails. From the cliffs of Derry and mountains of Snowdonia, through battles, storms and treacherous seas, to the wild woods and rocky roads of the Americas, DoE takes the listener on musical adventures that are as lyrically engaging as they are tuneful.
Formed during the time of COVID, DoE became a place to express love, celebrate family and heal personal wounds. Lovers in life and music, Daryl and Dawn gravitated to one another to process hardship and escape into a wonderland of song and fictional characters who face their fears and challenges with brave, open hearts.
