What will we sing?
Songs with a great hook that you’ve sung at the top of your voice in the shower or on a road trip with a friend. The kind of songs that make you want to move, or express your ‘teenage angst’, or ballads that remind you of what it is like to fall in love, or out of love... or songs that make you feel good about the world.

*How do I join the regular Sing Your Heart Out crew?
Sing Your Heart Out is offered as 6 week seasons on regular Monday nights in Fitzroy throughout the year, a few weeks shorter than each school term. Click here to find out more.

A bit more about Luke and why he is leading The Little Big Sing Your Heart Out:

Singing is good for our hearts and doing it in a group, when you feel supported to be yourself and find your voice, is an experience everyone should have.

I started learning to play the piano at about 12 years old, growing up I did every musical/play I could, listened obsessively to music all my childhood and then went to dance/drama school where I became a professional dancer theatre performer (and got a teaching degree).

When I left uni I worked professionally as a dance theater performer and I made a bit of a specialty of working with groups of people to help them discover their love of the performing arts.

Around 10 years ago I started to want to sing a lot more. I just liked how it felt and wanted to be able to do it a bit more confidently.

One day I was walking along the street and saw a sign for “Alexander Technique and voice lessons”. I’d been really interested in this technique and the opportunity seemed too obvious to miss. So I booked my first lesson and was hooked.

For the next 3 or 4 years I did 3 voice lessons a week and loved the Alexander technique so much I trained to become an Alexander technique teacher (which is a 3 year full time course).

Throughout all this I created a couple of solo shows that had singing at their heart and created Campfire - where I have led more Piano Bingo sessions (Piano Bingo is a playful, chaotic, pull songs out of a hat, sing-a-long) than I can count and I taught myself how to play the piano, in order to accompany myself singing.

Now, I’m excited to take my mix of experienced performer, confident group facilitator and curious musician to lead a group of people to sing their hearts out and discover the joy of singing in a group.
