View FREYjA's EPK
    FREYjA is a Paris based Australian singer/ songwriter/ poet/ writer who has performed on some mighty big stages...including Montreux Festival, Woodford Festival & more. She sang live before 47,000 people, La Marseillaise, the french national anthem, at Stadium Australia for the rugby match between France & Australia
    Album number three - THIS GIRL is hot off the press & FREYjA is now searching for a London based Management/ PR team to get her beautiful, music out there again. Albums numbers four & five are already written,her poetry & melody is deeevine so WHY ISNT SHE SIGNED?! This is one of life's great mysteries & once you see her live, you will wonder why too
    ...shakespeare, bach, theatre & television, poetry, south america... The Viking Goddess of Love & Night is ever-inspired.
    "...poetry is in my genes & i had lots of reasons to escape my childhood reality so that's where I went off to"
    ...music finds her singing in japan, montreux festival, woodford festival, copenhagen, new york, london, paris....how she ended up living in paris is a long, strange story
    ...many times, after being kidnapped by Thor (God of War) she has been known to suffer from Stockholm Syndrome but usually gets over it, after a song or two. Look out! everyone ends up in her song.
    ...working on 2 books concurrently ... an extensive poetry anthology & a book about a mermaid stuck in the bohemain underbelly of paris
    ...FREYjA has penned 25 new songs with Mykey (parisian producer/ arranger/ composer/ singer/ pianist - see top friends)which will no doubt be released in the next year once they can get the support they need. The must for their rock opera FROM THE OTHER SIDE is written see (freyja mykey myspace)
    ...FREYjA has won two musicoz awards (one for bye bye angel, best jazz song australia) & an australian achiever award (for her small agency business "jazzabella muzic") which made her feel real good (but still never quite good enuff).
    That's the nutshell for now. Go to FREYjA's official website for more and leave a message for heavens sake. Dont be shy. www.freyja.com.au
