If you’ve been reading Boudist a while you may have noticed that i like a good female singer/songwriter/frontwoman. Last night i got to see two of Australia’s best female music types in semi unique circumstances. First off was Sarah Blasko who i saw perform at The Vanguard in Newtown in a special show to preview her new album. I’ve seen her several times now and am always impressed by her distinctive voice and amazing range. The new songs sounded good and i’m really looking forward to hearing the album in order to judge properly. The album’s called ‘The Overture and The Underscore’ and it’s out next week.
After Sarah Blasko it was off to Kings Cross to be an extra on a music video shoot for Little Birdy. A dozen or so of us had to stand about outside this club looking casual while Katy the lead singer pranced around us in a glam little evening dress. If i’m lucky my back or the side of my face just might feature. No doubt the first step on my road to superstardom. The song’s called Tonight’s The Night, i guess it’ll be out in a month or two, so i’ll be keeping my eye on Rage.
Did you make the final cut for the Little Birdy clip? Can you show us?
My back is in the video, just a brief glimpse of my brown leather jacket. There’s some behind the scenes footage of the making of the video on the LB site. This video is of the scene i was in, in the group of people milling about outside the club.
Check out our band Ripped. We have a female singer. http://www.rippedmusic.com
