The music of mid north coast artist, SNEZ, embodies the art of songwriting in its most personal and universal forms. This enchanting songstress has a forte for describing the experiences of everyday life in a way that resonates with people. Coming from a Macedonian working-class family, where stories about hardship, romance and work ethic have been passed down through generations, Snez subtly weaves these influences into her own stories and songs, featuring traditional Macedonian songs from her parents’ mother country. Featuring Snez on vocals, acoustic guitar and bouzouki.

In 2009, SNEZ released her debut album ‘Gypsy Soul’, and there began her journey as a travelling storyteller. Hailing from the Blue Mountains, west of Sydney, with guitar in hand, SNEZ spent the next 5 years roaming remote and regional Australia, finding a willing audience around campfires, at cattle stations, on the side of highways and along pavements, at nursing homes, refugee camps, cafes, pubs, living rooms and indigenous schools; squeezing her world into a campervan for months at a time.

SNEZ seems to be able to cut to the heart of the matter not only lyrically, but live on stage. Her warm, passionate and compelling performance style, is peppered with comedic and haunting tales, layered harmonies and beautiful folk/pop melodies. When it comes to writing and performing, SNEZ definitely rules with her heart, not her head. Her personal life has become fodder for her art. Genevieve Jacobs from ABC Radio Canberra commented:‘We often have singer/songwriters come in and you think …it’s a cookie cutter, it’s same songs about boys and cars…but [with Snez] it is very personal; SNEZ's music is very emotional.’

SNEZ has performed at many large concerts and festivals around Australia, sharing the stage with notable artists including Renee Geyer, Jenny Morris, Robyne Dunn, Sophie B Hawkins (USA), Mahalia Barnes, and GANGajang.

Snez is more than a storyteller. She's truly an "open book" of songwriting in Australian music.Australian Musicians Radio

As well as working as a busker around Australia, throughout Spain, France, Ireland, England & Scotland. I’ve performed thousands of shows in Clubs, Pubs, Private functions as well as harbour cruisers.

This includes my own original shows in small theatres & private house-concerts.

“If you want to learn how to work an audience, get out busking at Kings Cross, The Rocks, Darling Harbour, around Circular Quay or outside the Hoyts Cinema in Sydney late on a Friday and Saturday night. You quickly learn what goes where, regarding performing” -Deebee

During the show at the Coramba Hall on Sunday September 4th, I will play my own contemporary acoustic songs similar in style to... Jack Johnson/ Tim Rogers/ Bernard Fanning/ Tom Waits/

David Gray/ Bob Dylan.

On Acoustic Guitar, Stage Piano, Banjo, Mandolin & Tenor Uke, it will be a great fun afternoon.

I’ll weave humorous stories in between songs, about growing up in the 1970’s as the son of a Baptist minister. There will be a few comical memories about working as a support act

(opener at a concert) for some of Australia’s greatest bands while touring in an old VW Kombi.

Be prepared for an up close & personal experience with a seasoned musician.
