  • Bio

    When I first picked up my dad's guitar at age eight I had no idea that was the moment that would change the path of my life. Music has brought so much colour to my otherwise black and white life. I have travelled this beautiful country performing the music I love. I consider myself one of the luckiest chick singers in the world to have the opportunity to be 1/3 of Bella, a group that still makes the hair on my neck stand on end when I hear them (us). Lyn Bowtell and Karen O'Shea are two of the most FABULOUS voices in Australian County music and I feel blessed to have learnt and continue to learn so much from them.I can't explain it but it's some kinda wonderful we have together.Maybe it's kindred spirits, all I do know is it's unique. I feel honoured to have been given all of these opportunities. I have made some wonderful friends along the way and have some amazing memories of my journey. I hope you enjoy me sharing some of that with you .. .. I made this myspace background at ...... ..Ride...... .. .. .. .. ..

    Thankyou for adding me, Kate. I remember your win in Tamworth well. I used to be a member of The Sublimes, as was Karen O'Shea a former member, there is still "The Sublime Sisterhood" with Angie Sublime at the helm!! I haven't caught Bella live, almost did in Penrith one year, but had to work. Just gorgeous harmonies and I'm not surprised by that. I saw Lyn perform live in Tamworth the year you won Starmaker. I had a few wins there myself.
    Wishing you all the very best,
    Anni Lang
