Tallie Brown Now An Angel (Jarrad's song)* (Tallie Brown) 
Howdy! My name is Tallie Brown. I am 16 years old and currently doing year 11 at Woodcroft College. My favourite subjects are Art and English as I feel I can express my creativity through them. I love writing music, and singing has always been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. If I am not able to pursue a career in singing and songwriting, I would like to take up graphic design.

Boy Harum Sweet Kiss (Gareth Durant and Nathan Clisby) 
Drowning in a sea of sweat, beards and guitars…is melody and Boy Harum. The consequence of excessive amounts of hair and heart and ways to express how they cherish both. A boyish lifetime in the making and hyped since existence over hazy eyes as they peer out from above the rim of last drinks. At the heart, the unlikely duo of the kid who could win a moustache n' swearin' contest at a sailing port, age 15 and the kid that knew Tull n' Maiden would always be hip…throw in (when badgered) the spittin' image and the youngest of two…and it all gels…not like a tight unit…but like a well greased Scotsman who's yarns round a pint o' black are delivered with such soul…we can't help but be engaged. Keep an ear and n' eye out…thanks for listening. BH.
Sweet Kiss was one of the winning songs in the Demo section of SCALA's FOOM 2002.
Lineup: Recorded at Industry Studios. Engineered and Produced by Rob Transini

Corey Stewart has been writing songs all his life however this is the second time that one of his songs has been included on a SCALA CD. The first time was on the SCALA Steps CD in 2000 with his song Nothing Stands In Your Way. Trying to pin Corey down is a difficult thing to do. He can be seen playing with other artists (Steve Lennox, Avra Velis), doing studio work, playing in his own band or doing the occasional solo show. No doubt one of those gigs will be at a Saturday showcase sometime soon.
