Letterbox was Vic's Sydney band in 2003- 2005. Since then she has pursued a solo career as a singer songwriter playing a 12 string Martin guitar and more recently classical guitar and banjo. Vic is currently working on her first album recorded live in 2008 - it's a double album of 24 songs where she's accompanied by her friends and fellow songwriters performing covers of her songs and joining in as a live audience in Brian Campeau's living room. Stay tuned for that.



'I'm from rural Qld - but don't tell anyone. I've lived most of my adult life in NSW so I feel like I've almost wrung the pineapples out of my hair now. I've been a professional environmental activist (yes, I've stood in front of bulldozers, and on one occasion, an army tank and lines of armed police officers). I've been a National Park's guide and educator and have worked with Aboriginal groups, I've had my own Theatre Company, and countless rock/folk/idiotic bands. I've been a high school teacher, a marketing manager, a project manager, IT specialistand now I'm trying to make a go of writing music and am currently writing a musical with a couple of talented friends - coz you can never get rid of the bug to do theatre when you've been bitten by it."



Vic moved to Sydney in 2001 and has played many gigs round Sydney including: The Vanguard, The Harp Hotel, Eastside Music Cafe and the folk-haven Glebe Excelsior among many other hotels, bars and cafe venues around town too numerous to mention.



After a successful tour to Melbourne in 2008, she decided to move there and can be found singing at various venues around Melbourne selling her "song-books" with CD.



Her latest project is a 6 song EP of Science Songs a taste of which can be found on the PYJAMAS site.



Vic sometimes works with songwriter David Griggs. and wishes he would just move to Melbourne, already.
