Joined by Simonne Cooper a Singer/Songwriter, Recording Artist and DJ from Sydney with career spanning over 3 decades.  Starting in the Sydney scene back in the early 90’s, Simonne moved to London and Ibiza in the late 90s to pursue her career internationally.  Simonne wasted no time in going to see for herself what all the fuss was about in Ibiza, lets just say the rest is history after gaining long term residencies in the most iconic clubs in the world “Space”, “Pacha”, “Amnesia” and “Lio”, to getting noticed by the one and only ‘Erick Morillo’ who invited her to New York to write and record the widely successful single  ‘’Feels Alright’’ with Richard F, which has since been licensed to Hed Kandi, Ministry of Sound, Pacha Recordings to name but a few.  Simonne has also been an avid supporter and mentor of young women in the music and performing arts industry, mentoring and training many young singers, dancers. and performing artists through her performing arts academy ‘DIPAC’ Dubai International Performing Arts Collective.  Later going on to be the founder and creative director of the world’s first all female House Music Orchestra “House Odyssey” performing some of the biggest house anthems both new and classics.
