Mezz Coleman

Mezz Coleman is Melbourne-based vocal coach, a singer-songwriter, and a musician. In short, she’s in the middle of a long and varied career! So far highlights include a support spot for NZ’s Kimbra, backing vocalist and sessional singing work for Marcia Hines, Delta Goodrem, and Anthony Callea; and performing at the 2021 Vision Australia ‘Carols by Candlelight concert’ – who hasn’t dreamed of being part of that special annual event?

Mezz has often talked about forging a career in music while also being a mum (to two kids), and you may have heard her speak on “the Art of Being a Mum” podcast. Her new album is “I Never Said a Word” – and we’re here to hear all of yours, Mezz! Welcome to Music Mothers and Others – and thanks for letting us feature some of you gorgeous music, tracks ““Much More Than This”, “Chasing Light” and “Magic Moment”.

Kelly-Dawn Hellmrich – Music Mothers and Others

Kelly-Dawn Hellmrich is a musician, music industry member and author of the excellent new book It’s Not For You: Inside the artists rewriting the rules of the Australian music scene. With interviews from the who you already know, and who you really SHOULD know of Australian music, the book showcases the stories, sounds and perspectives that are not as often considered in the Oz Music sphere. Also a mum and member of the broader village, with us she talks about raising kids, breaking down gates and what it might be like if we all thought outside the box a bit more. Currently on break as a musician (her band Camp Cope said goodbye a while back), we also talk about what the next steps might be. We are so excited to have you with Kelly – you can hear the ep below and read more of her chat with Liz at TheMusic.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
