Meet the band
Mikala
Mikala’s calm, relaxed attitude and open, friendly personality help her immediately connect to an audience.
Not only a vocalist but also a student and teacher of music and musical theatre, Mikala believes music is for everyone. She is always seeking to expand her knowledge and skill set and loves to share it all with her students. A Diploma of Music at TAFESA and a Bachelor of Music at Tabor Institute of Music, Mikala is a vocal and acting coach when she’s not busy producing her own Fringe shows and performing in her duo ‘Acoustic Amigos’.
The only thing she loves more than ice cream, fun clothes, funky earrings, and the TV show ‘Friends’ is sharing her passion for music and performing WITH her friends.
Nick
A children’s entertainment veteran of over 15 years, Nick’s cheeky, spontaneous sense of humor and raw vocal power make him a crowd favourite.
Performing as a professional drummer since he was 15, Nick now works as a freelance musician and sound engineer. He can be found around town teaching drums, producing, recording, mixing and mastering music or providing musical entertainment at weddings in his acoustic trio The Neapolitans or party band The Big Squeeze.
In his spare time he’ll be cycling around the inner suburbs with his daughter looking for a new park or playground to explore.
Jono
Packing a formidable sonic arsenal, Jono is a one-man orchestra.
Covering piano, organ, strings, brass and bass parts when needed, his musicianship is an invaluable asset to the team, as is his dry, subtle comedic style and wit.
Jono spent some time studying at the Elder Conservatorium of Music at Adelaide Uni and is on regular rotation as a session musician for The Baker Boys, as well as his own party band The Big Squeeze.
Jono also has his AFC A Licence and spent over 10 years coaching Football SA Girls State teams, including 2 years as assistant coach for the Adelaide United W-League side.

Eve
A whirlwind of energy and a deep well of empathy, you can always count on Eve to rise to the occasion.
