Shelley Q was born in a small country town near Narrogin, Western Australia.

She discovered a love for music at the age of three, listening to the classic icons of the 50's & 60’s. But her world changed at the age of 10 when seeing the movie , 'Walk the Line'. She taught herself the guitar and learned every song in the movie.

Shelley moved to a boarding school in Perth and when times got tough, the guitar became her best friend. Her talent was soon discovered and Shelley went from playing in the school common-room by herself, to a half-time football spectacle in front of thousands. A single and music video soon followed along with appearances on TV.

Shelley's other passion is acting and she has been cast in a feature film, shooting in Perth during the months of April and May this year.

Cyla Maguire is who you would call an inspiring human being. Her childhood could be lifted straight out of a documentary, where the main character ends up in a life of crime or worse, dead. Cyla was shifted from house to house, finally being fostered by an Indigenous Elder who became the mother figure she needed. In her teenage years, Cyla finally found a place she would call home and people she would call family - a boxing gym. Boxing saved her life in many ways, and after turning Pro, Cyla was involved in a near-fatal car accident. This was a defining moment in her life. Cyla has become a role model to many, including myself. Now she shares her story for the first time in this podcast.

Garth De Bruno Austin is known as the cameraman who rubbed the tummy of a baby Rhino.   

Garth is a South African born Director of Photography who has over 10 years experience in the film industry, ranging from feature documentaries, commercial projects and TV shows.   

From his unique experience growing up in the African bush and expertise across a range of productions around the world, it has led to Garth creating his own distinctive style of cinematic story telling.  

He is currently an ambassador to the camera brand 'Black Magic' and has worked on a feature length documentary for the last four years, dealing with the Rhino poaching crisis in South Africa.

Eddie Stowers is a NZ born Samoan, and with his wife of 30 years Sally, are the proud parents of four young men.

An experienced trainer, facilitator and professional speaker, he has developed and delivered sales, management, leadership and executive coaching programs for clients across Australia, New Zealand, Asia and the UK for more than thirty years. Developing leaders in the corporate world and maximising human potential, that’s what makes him happy. 

But not fulfilled.

He would rather be a full time actor. 

A twenty year veteran of theatre and film, he has performed everything from Shakespeare and Pinter, to musicals and comedies. He is an actor, writer, producer, voice over artist and teacher, currently playing Senior Constable Fetu Vainu’upo on the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) TV series THE HEIGHTS.

Kuda Mic is a seasoned performing artist with an expansive 10 year history in the industry. One of Perth's exciting talents, Kuda takes pride in creating meaningful music that tells a story and spreads a positive message that crosses physical and musical borders. 

Born and raised in Zimbabwe and now calling Perth home, Kuda's journey took him through Kenya and Uganda leading to a wide array of cultural and musical influences that have forged a universal style. Formerly known as 'E.T.C.' and more recognisable as one of the members of Perth rap group 'Respect The Talent', Kuda's musical journey has taught him that above all else, support of aspiring artists is a duty for those with the opportunity to do so. That mentality has led to the formation of a solid network of like-minded musicians that seek to bring people together and better the world through great music.

Hailing from Dublin Ireland, Mark now calls Australia home and has been a regular on the Perth comedy scene for over 3 years.

He is known as the fastest man in comedy and his interests include everything from alien conspiracies, ancient history, UFC, football and stand-up comedy.
