The following year she again had the pleasure of singing the national anthem at Showdown 13, Crows vs. Port Power, before a record crowd of 51,000 fans at AAMI Stadium. In 2001 and 2002, Tori performed at The Advertiser - Carols by Candlelight evenings in Elder Park to crowds of 35,000.Recipient of the Variety Club’s ‘Young Arts Achiever Award’ and the ‘South Australian Young Composers Award, Tori was invited by Ian ‘Molly' Meldrum to sing on a pilot show "Mollywood" in September 2004.

In June 2005, Tori, alongside of Daniel, showcased for Sony/BMG Australia, but was advised, due to her age, to embark on a songwriting program.In April 2006 Tori embarked on a songwriting trip to New York, Nashville and Los Angeles and was fortunate to work with prominent songwriters and producers including Toby Gad (Fergie, The Veronicas, Natasha Bedingfield), Madeline Stone/Salme Dahlstrom (Billy Gilman) and Michael Garvin (Jennifer Lopez).Last year, Tori successfully completed her final year of schooling and was accepted into the Laws and Legal Studies course at Adelaide Flinders University.

This year, Tori has worked with many Australian writers including Jamie Sullivan, Gary Pinto, Phil Turcio and Paul Cecchinelli.Tori is currently composing and recording her debut album, collaborating with producers/writers including TOMMY DENANDER (Eric Clapton, Sheryl Crowe), Daniel Jones (Savage Garden) and Andreas Carlsson (Celine Dion, Britney Spears, LeAnn Rimes).
