Mayfest Performance: Shake A Tail Feather

Guess who's back? Back again? Tsoof is back! Tell a friend WOOAAAHH!

So, the next song in the Mayfest set is a bit of an 'oldie'. Sarah and I picked it to get the audience dancing and liven the mood a bit. It did just that and even got the compere's for the day dancing.

This is a video of Sarah and me singing 'Shake A Tail Feather' originally by The Five Du-Tones, though most famously covered by Ray Charles and The Blues Brothers.

See if you know all the moves ;)

There will be more

Mayfest Performance: Somebody That I Used To Know by Gotye

But wait, there's more!

Here is yet another video of my friend Sarah and me performing earlier on in the day during our afternoon set. The crowd was amazing and we had a great time. We chose to sing this song because we thought that everyone would really enjoy it after all the hype of Gotye's success. Turns out we picked correctly!

This is a video of Sarah singing 'Somebody That I Used To Know' by Gotye with me playing guitar and singing as well.

And yep, you guessed it! There will be

Turning Tables at White Ribbon Day

A few months ago (better late than never), I was invited by the organizers of Amnesty International's White Ribbon Day in Brisbane to perform 5 songs related to violence against women. Sarah La Sala joined me and proved to be an amazing singing partner.

This performance was a bit challenging, because the songs had to suit the White Ribbon Day theme of violence against women. In the end, Sarah managed to come up with a few really great songs, and in a few days, we managed to pull together a

Mayfest Performance: Steer by Missy Higgins

And the video's just keep coming!

Mayfest Performance: Make You Feel My Love

Make You Feel My Love Mayfest Performance - Tsoof Baras and Sarah La Sala

Guess who's back with a new performance video! 

Mayfest came around again this year and the organizers of the outdoor stage invited Sarah and I to come and perform a few sets during the day. If you don't already know, Mayfest is MacGregor Primary School's yearly Fete and has been an opportunity for me to perform and get my music out there every year for the past few years.

This year I invited my friend Sarah La Sala to come and sing with me, and we had a great time performing some of the

Singing Goodbye to our music teachers

At the end of every school year, MacGregor State High School puts on a showcase of all the school’s instrumental and vocal ensembles. It’s a brilliant event that shows off beautifully what all of us can do. ‘Music at Mac’ (as it is so wonderfully named) this year was a really great thing to be a part of. As I was a student who participated in all but the junior bands and the string program, I was busy the whole night performing as well as organising this year’s seniors to put on a show for the

New Original Song: Adventure

Hey everybody,

At my school's Vocal Soirée, I performed a new song with my beautiful sister Eden. Kudos to my sister, she's a beautiful singer and I'm really glad she performed with me, it was her first performance in public and she was wonderful. It was a great night, filled with performances from all the school choirs, as well as small ensembles and solo performances.

The new song is called "Adventure" and it's about (as the title suggests) having an adventure, leaving all the

Hello, Hello

For the past 8 days, I've been at a special music camp run by the QLD government for music students. It's my second time there and I'm having an absolute blast!

Last night was our first concert for the parents and I got to sing a great song you'll easily recognise with the MOST Big Band - Hello, Hello by the Cat Empire.

Check it!

Freedom Solo at Mayfest

Mayfest is an annual school festival at my old primary school and every year, my high school bands and choirs get to perform there. This year, I got to sing George Michael's song Freedom with the Macgregor State High School Show Choir.

Later that day, we sang other songs and I performed with two of my friends and then on my own. I'll post those videos later, so stay tuned.

Anyway, here's Freedom. It's a really cool song. Enjoy.
