ZALIA
Zalia has been involved in the entertainment industry for over 3 decades,
starting singing and dancing when she was 4years old. Her experience
ranges from blues- rock bands to intimate jazz soirees, classical choirs
to saucy duo’s and acoustic spots at various café’s throughout
the lands. She has performed to 3000 people at big shows, in pubs and streets
around Australia, at openings for Art Exhibitions, Christmas concerts, to
those who are less advantaged and to children and adults in hospital.
She
has sung many varied styles with many different bands. Cutting her teeth
on blues and rock (Dr Brown Blues Band, Dead Set, Clown School, Loco),
she joined the soul band CJ & the T Horns and sang in the tribute
bands of David Bowie (Scott James) and Pink Floyd (Pulse).
Having the creative drive, she has collaborated on many different original
projects performing live and recording (Thirst, Acid, Sorcy, Sonic Adventurers,
Dave Reynolds) - the latest being for visiting Indian Sikhs for their
Sacred Hymns Album.
Zalia has played in acoustic duos across through out Western
Australia, playing guitar, singing lead and harmony vocals.
She began her university
studies at Curtin (BA in English) majoring in Theatre and Creative Writing.
During this time she began to perform singing telegrams which she continued
for 11 years. She performed as Fifi the French maid, Helga the Swedish nurse,
Mary Xmas, Police Woman, Sister Blasphemous, Gorilla, Frog, Angel, Riot Fairy,
Harem Girl, Prego Paula, Madam Lash, Cher, and currently as Earth Fairy Princess.
After Curtin, she decided to study music at the WA
Conservatorium - Advanced Certificate in Commercial Music. This educated
her in the language of music and helped define the musician she is today.
Because of her passion for theatre she went onto study the Certificate in
Musical Theatre (WAAPA) which is where she began her classical training.
This opened her voice up to the new exciting possibilities of sound not just
song.
She has won several competitions in
singing: 2004- Subiaco Song Competition; 1998- Paddy Hannan’s Karaoke
Competition- Burswood Casino WA; 1994- Original song competition, James St
Nightclub “Rainbow Blues”.

Von Ziarno.
Currently, Zalia is singing and playing acoustic guitar as a solo
performer. She has recently become in demand to perform at special parties,
weddings and soirees.
Her purpose is to create and communicate that which touches and
moves people, embedded in the belief that music and performing is about the
audience, not the performer.
