Monty Lameer
Just a humble but egocentric 45 year old Australian gal who's trying to make music at home while unfortunately battling 10 years of writer's block. In the meantime, I busk down by the beach where I live.
Lady Gaga follows me on Twitter! I don't know why, but I ain't complaining!
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Singer since I was 13 years old.
Started as an instrumentalist who only played by ear in my small home studio, and then graduated to adding lyrics and of course, singing the songs.
Now 45 years old and aspire to be a decrepit, elderly version of Lady Gaga.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I used to busk down by the beach in the busy main street where I live. Just my amp, mic, mp3 player and voice. It was fun...especially when a seagull landed on my head!
