Mama Alto is a countertenor diva, jazz singer and cabaret artiste. Fierce, femme and fabulous, she has been lauded as “divine” (Havana Tribune, Cuba), as “near flawless” (The Age), and “a knockout” (The Herald Sun). She fascinates audiences with “an idiosyncratic mix of statuesque fragility” (The Music), and the accolades roll in from there - “velvet-voiced” (Sometimes Melbourne), “angelic vocal perfection” (The Plus Ones), “transcendent” (Stage Whispers), “breathtaking” (ArtsHub), “hypnotically beautiful, elegant and mysterious” (Adelaide Advertiser), and “bewitching” (SameSame).
