About Me

A weaver of words and sounds, Stephie likes finding ways to thread together the many stories that exist in the landscapes she inhabits, traversing this vast country to connect her innercity life to the red centre of Australia where she grew up.

The thread she weaves takes on many forms and flavours depending on how she feels when she wakes in the morning – shape shifting to become poet, writer, songstress … the incantations are endless.

An elusive creature at times, Stephie spends her days darting back and forth between the gritty city of Brisvegas (where her various musical alter egos run riot with the temptations of funk and a bit of rowdy ska) and the open spaces of Central Australia where she runs music recording/songwriting workshops with students on remote communities (a passion that has taken her from Arrente country deep into the heart of Ngaanyatjarra lands.)

Forever collecting fragments of stories along the way, these ‘travellations’ are combined in Stephie's secret underground laboratory to create strange yet sweet therapeutic potions to sooth even the most embittered soul.
