Songsalive! president, gilli moon, meets Julia Gillard, Australia's Deputy Prime Minister

On Sunday October 4, at an informal backyard garden party hosted by the American Australian Association, at the home of the Consul General of Australia based in Brentwood, California, Songsalive! president, Gilli Moon, met Julia Gillard, Australia's Deputy Prime Minister.

It was a casual affair, but everyone was suited up and Gilli wore her party frock. In their conversation, Gilli spoke about Songsalive! and how it has developed from Sydney Australia, into the largest international non-profit organization for songwriters and composers worldwide, now with its second base in Los Angeles. "The international focus of the organization", Gilli revealed to Julia, "is to be a door stop for Australian songwriters and composers when coming to America, as well as creating synergy and collaboration between Australian and American songwriters and composers."

Julia seemed impressed with the success of Songsalive!'s development and expansion and expressed her thanks for doing something not only worthwhile for Aussie artists, but contributing fruitful relationships between the two countries, (a primary focus of her trip to Los Angeles.)

Gilli also gave Julia a copy of her extraOrdinary life CD. "Oh Good", Julia said. "I'll have something to play in the car while I'm here!"

SKILLZ cd comes to life

Buy Cd
As you may know already, J.Walker and I released our joint album together SKILLZ earlier this year, and it has been very opportunistic already. We had a launch performance at Downtown On Ice, Pershing Square early January, to tons of kids and more coming. Since then we have performed at a school, and have been selling the CD on our website www.skillzcd.com and iTunes. This album is a cross between hip hop and pop, using J's rap and spoken word, and my contemporary music production and voice. We're very excited with the developments of this project for youth.
A Divine Nine Productions release, in conjunction with BFM Digital.

New CD Review Just In!
LunaKafe writes: "J.Walker is a spoken word artist and teacher, Gilli Moon is a songwriter. Their collaboration uses hip-hop to try and reach kids with a positive message... Walker and Moon do a good job of getting to the point. It's a hard genre to tackle, but these two make it work. Their message couldn't be better which is cool also." Full review

An interesting music placement story: gilli placed her song Evolution (from the extraOrdinary life album) in the short film called LOVE IS LOVE, directed by Anne Renton. It's hilariously funny, but really thought provoking as it's very timely due to the recent Prop 8 decisions here in California. Watch it online here: www.loveisloveshortfilm.com. Interested to know about gilli's music discography, and where she's placed songs, who've sung them, and other good stuff? Go discography
