Fox (Karrie Moore) performs stripped-back acoustic covers of Paramore's "Still Into You", Seal's "Kiss From A Rose", and Pink's "Glitter In The Air" — recorded live at Whisper Restaurant And Gin Bar in Airlie Beach, Queensland.
As the front woman of two regional bands (The Fox and Golden), Karrie Moore is one of the busiest working singers in the Whitsundays. In this Tiny Vinyl Session, she steps away from her usual high-energy band stages for an intimate solo set and a candid conversation with host Nick Di Gregorio about life as a full-time gigging musician in regional Australia.
Across the episode, Karrie opens up about juggling two bands and a tattoo career, the changing etiquette of pub gigs in the social media era, why supportive bandmates matter more than elite musicianship, and how a CD handed to a music shop in 2011 turned into a 14-year career in Airlie Beach.
