Singing Lessons For No One

Fan Mail Portal
Ahoy my friends, 
Thanks so much for tuning in. We're heading on a journey about what the workshops I lead are like, Because! I'm heading out on the road baby!
I'm heading to The Northern Rivers Conservatorium in Lismore NSW,
Molesworth Hall in the Derwent Valley, In TASMANIA!
Callala Beach Community Centre in the South Coast, NSW,
and back to Bellingen, NSW, for a fun sing to end the tour!
Please check out my website if you are near any of those places! The Tour is called Spring Sing - so, from September 2026, we're off.

In this episode I sing a veeeery quick version of Siva Siva Maia by Bobby Alu, 
and then I head into a song about the Sun. 
The VERSE:
The Chords are A Major, and F#minor. 
"When that big old sun, Creeps it’s mighty way 
Through the horizon on your left 
Over and under, surprised by the thunder 
Maybe She knows what’s coming next". 
Thanks so much for listening. 
Also, 
For my dear Patreon people, Patreon is changing its terms and conditions, from "per Creation" to a monthly subscription- from November 1, 2026. As part of that big old change, I will, and have for the last few months - creating two podcasts month... Cause I reckon, for that change, I want to make it really worth your while. 
So. Just so you know, just because I have legends in Patreon, there's more episodes squeaking out. 
THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING this thang. xxxx
Thats all. 
I made a pretty funny film clip for this one actually.

This week we sing a classic Sea Urchin masterpiece. 
And then we dive deeper (see what I did there) to look at the clarity and pronunciation of words. 
I've got some exciting adventures coming up this year - I wonder if you're near any of them?!
I'm heading to Lismore Conservatorium NSW, 
The Derwent Valley in TAS, 
Callala Bay, NSW, 
and 
Bellingen NSW. 
Choir and Vocal Workshops. So Much fun. 
I'll post some dates ASAP, - but it's in Spring 2026, so pencil that in mentally if you're near NSW and TAS in Spring this year!!
Lotsa love and thank you so much, I appreciate it so much!

Heya, 
Today we sing Somewhere in Heaven, and we play with wether that melody is Minor or Major. 
And then we play with Vocal Blending over Hallelujah. 
So fun.

Hiya, Im running off to teach workshops and singing and schoirs at a singing and dance retreat in Byron Bay. So Fun! And Im squeezing this episode in before I go!

We sing these words:
With these chords: 
|| G             | %             | E dim                | %             |
| D              |        %      | G                       | %             ||
It’s all right here, 
just close your eyes and see, 
I don’t know the gravity, 
That keeps you holding on to me, 
I’ll spin around this earth, 
I’ll hold on to all the dirt, 
I’ll find my way through, 
and make it back to you.  

a Diminished Triad Chord is a 1 flat 3, flat 5. 
This is a tricky thing to chat about, because there exists a fully diminished and half diminished seven chord, but for here, I'm just talking about the Triad chord. Just the three notes. 
Thanks so much for listening!
Lotsa Love! 
Shelly
