About Me


THE REMEDY
Stella & Bec (ex- SHE*OAK, STRANGE EQUATION ) return to the stage as an acoustic duo. Mostly original works - some old, some new. 6 string, 12 string, the odd mandolin. Vocals & harmonies delivered in a strong heartfelt flow. CD available Octoberish.
StellaQ is primarily a solo performer, experienced with bands & studio sessions for demos, voice-overs, jingles, & live broadcasts. With a broad genre of soul-felt Blues & working-class ballads to ballsy Rock’n’Roll, StellaQ’s original award-winning compositions have been used for community projects, documentaries & advertising.
Fortunate enough to be surrounded with talented & respected family, friends & mentors, who generously shared invaluable knowledge & encouragement, StellaQ acquired a good grounding in the various aspects of the music industry; from technical production to techniques for live & studio performance.
StellaQ’s professional resume ranges from her (analog/tape) TV/Video production days of editing to directing TV commercials; lighting & sound, interviews, scriptwriting & presenting "Morning T with Lou" for FM community radio; plus graphic design & photography.
