Stacey Broughton is a consummate performer and versatile entertainer with a passion for jazz. Her early years were filled with the sounds of Sarah Vaughan, Julie London, Sergio Mendes, Brazil 66 and the live sounds of jamming in her lounge room when jazz pianist Ray Aldridge visited the family home.

Inspired by the music that surrounded her younger years Stacey began studies in jazz guitar at 15 years and by the age of 22 added the alto sax to her collection of preferred instruments. Then she had an epiphany. Stacey realised she just wanted to sing!

Rocket E-mail

In an industry where hype is the norm and outrageous stories are commonplace, it is refreshing to meet and deal with an act that is focused on getting the job done and prides themself on a high level of professionalism.  "Rocket" is just such an act.

Audiences and venues can now appreciate an act versatile enough to be warm and intimate, through the use of an acoustic guitar and sweet melodies; or rough, raucous and rock and roll with an electric guitar and programmed backing tracks.  With his prodigous repertoire and the latest in audio technology, "Rocket" can smoothly adapt to the changing needs of both venues and patrons.

Yemanja E-mail

While all things Brazilian continue to influence music and dance (and of course, soccer), under the measured hands of Brazilian guitarist Edson Gazani and Australian singer Anita Fernandes, Yemanjá bring a new and distinct feel to the genre. Silky smooth soulful strings coupled with penetrating poetic lyrics, Yemanjá scoop you up and take you to that perfect Sunday afternoon, caipirinha in hand. The duo fuse jazz, bossa nova, samba and chanson tainted with a world music edge to serenade and soothe the most restless of souls. Their ability to take old traditional styles and progressively recreate them makes them truly unique, giving them a reminiscent yet modern edge.

So go grab that drink, find your nearest hammock in the sun and lie back. If jazzy, stylish, soulful & different is your thing, you're definitely in for a treat.
