After an amazing evening launching my new CD ‘The Secret Garden’ at The Vanguard on Thursday 27 August 2009, I am so looking forward to releasing it in a couple of weeks. Pre-orders will be soon available from this site and in the meantime, I hope you enjoy some beautiful photos taken by my friend Smurfun on the night!

OPHELIA OF THE SPIRITS EP - DRUM MEDIA REVIEW
By Michael Smith:
1 July 2008: Issue 912: P44 Here’s a piano-playing female singer/songwriter who hasn’t resorted to the contemporary penchant for emphasising her Australian accent, yet isn’t singing with an American accent.

Cambodia is a melting pot of aching, heartbreaking hope and sorrow. A place of strange serenity and spirituality which echos with the distant cries of French Colonialism and the brutal violence and bloodshed of the Khmer Rouge.
Ophelia’s musings on the meaning of truth: What is truth? Are religious or spiritual beliefs different in kind from scientific or commonsense beliefs? Is truth absolute? (And if not, is that an absolute truth?)
Ophelia asks: What is the significance of the monster in the horror film? What does the monster represent and has this changed over the course of the development of the horror film genre?
