Soul Divas Trio

Annie Collins - Vocals / M.C. / Manager
Annie was born with a passion for music and a powerful voice to complement it. Annie studied at the National Theatre School and has over  25 years stage experience in music & theatre, working locally at well known venues and internationally on cruise ships.  Her energy, professionalism, presentation and management skills provide an excellent basis to front the Soul Divas band.  Her early influences leant toward old school soul / jazz.  Her current influences include anything from Jason Mraz to Lady Gaga to Eva Cassidy.  Annie has won multiple awards as a first class Ceremony Vocalist and Professional M.C.  When Annie is not singing she is writing novels or jumping out of planes, off buildings and bridges.
Sally Hetherington - Vocals
Sally ventured into the music industry more than 20 years ago, writing and recording her own songs which led to a recording contract with an independent record label. Sally's influences include current singer/songwriters plus retro dance artists like the inimitable Kylie & Madonna.  Sally has been greatly influenced by 80’s energetic dance music artists, yet her strong vocal ability lends itself to a huge range of styles from Marvin Gaye to Michael Buble to Bon Jovi.  Sally's personal time is filled with her graphic design business and raising a gorgeous little girl who will no doubt, one day, be a performer in her own right!
Chris Collins - Guitar
Chris first picked up a guitar at age 10 and hasn’t put it down since.  An extremely talented lead guitarist and experienced sound engineer, Chris has worked with many Melbourne original and cover bands such as Big Night Out, LBD, Synchronicity and Rainmaker.  Chris' influences range from modern jazz and funk to traditional rock.   His sound engineering credits include Colleen Hewitt, The Great Big Opera Company and award winning sound design for theatrical productions.  Chris does most of the editing on our digital sequences giving them a realistic balance rarely achieved by most bands.  He also enjoys the odd glass of Guinness or two and donuts!.

Soul Divas 4  - 5 piece band

Peter De Ryk - Jazz Pianist
Peter has over 16 years professional experience in various original and cover bands working interstate and overseas, including Mood Indigo and the Cotton Club Orchestra. A consumate musician with a wonderful feel for jazz, Peter is also brilliant in rhythm & blues, rock and soul. Peter is a musical director in theatre and in his spare time he teaches & composes, having written & recorded several albums.
Greg Clarkson, Nigel Maas, Cheryl Clarke - Saxophones
These musos are Melbourne's most experienced session musos working with Soul Divas to add sparkle & personality to larger events.  They have worked with the world's best musicians locally and overseas and we are privileged to have them on our books to call in when that extra special line up is required to fill out larger events.  There's nothing that sounds as sexy as a sax! (except the Divas of course!)
