for the Soul
There's something truly special about watching a room light up when they hear a familiar tune. A song from their youth can unlock memories, spark conversations, and bring a joy that lasts well beyond the session itself.
I bring timeless classics back to life — Doris Day, Perry Como, Johnny Cash, The Seekers, and all the classics in between. My sessions are interactive, warm, and designed to get everyone involved, whether that's singing along, clapping, or simply swaying to the music with a smile.

Get in Touch
Reach out and tell me about your facility, your residents, and what you're looking for. I'll ask about musical preferences, group size, and any special considerations.
Tailored Setlist
I'll put together a setlist of golden oldies and familiar favourites based on your residents' era and tastes. Staff input is always welcome — you know your residents best.
The Session
I arrive with everything I need, set up quietly, and create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Expect sing-alongs, smiles, tapping feet, and maybe even a few happy tears.
Lasting Joy
The benefits extend well beyond the session itself. Staff regularly tell me residents are brighter, more social, and more engaged for days afterwards. That's the real magic.

Frequently Asked Questions
I focus on the classics that residents know and love — think Frank Sinatra, Doris Day, The Beatles, Patsy Cline, Johnny Cash, Slim Dusty, and plenty of golden oldies from the 1940s through to the 1970s. I also include well-known hymns and folk songs. My setlist is always tailored based on feedback from staff and residents.
Absolutely — participation is at the heart of what I do. I encourage singing along, clapping, tapping feet, and even a bit of dancing for those who are able. I bring song lyric sheets for popular numbers and often take requests on the spot. It's interactive, not a passive performance.
Yes, and this is something very close to my heart. Music has a remarkable ability to reach people living with dementia — familiar melodies can unlock memories and emotions in ways that words alone can't. I adapt my approach for each setting, whether that's a communal lounge or smaller, more intimate gatherings for memory care units.
Standard sessions run for 45 minutes to 1 hour, which tends to be the sweet spot for engagement without fatigue. I also offer extended sessions for special events like Christmas parties or facility open days. Scheduling is flexible — morning sessions tend to be most popular.
Yes! Many aged care facilities book me on a recurring basis — weekly, fortnightly, or monthly. Regular visits allow me to build genuine relationships with residents and tailor the experience over time. Recurring bookings also come with discounted rates.
