Acknowledged as the "Queen of Bossa Nova",
Sitti Navarro has single-handedly revitalised
interest in this unique jazz form amongst fans
of all ages.
Her lilting voice soars effortlessly over
timeless standards like "The Girl from Ipanema"
and Tagalog adaptions alike.
Sitti's vibrant personality has made her a
popular host on the Pinoy Dream Academy show.
She has followed that up by securing a regular
spot in ABS-CBN's flagship variety show: ASAP
07.
Sitti's first album "Cafe Bossa" has already
acheived Double Platinum status and she has
followed that up with "Sitti Live", recorded
during her solo concert in Ortigas Park.

part or came along and made this a memorable
event.

RAW Sounds
Saturday, June 11, 2005
Dallas Brooks Centre, East
Melbourne
Move over Beyonce! Stand
back Usher! Melbourne’s hottest new RnB/Hip-hop
singing talents are gracing the stage in the
most electrifying competition yet – “RAW
Sounds”.
These singers will no
doubt render you speechless with their
captivating voices in what promises to be a
sell-out event. But wait, there’s a catch. Not
only will these singers entertain with their
voices, they must also complete the show with
Melbourne’s funkiest and freshest dancers!
RAW Sounds was another massive event. The fresh
concept of bringing singers to work together
with dances in an R&B / Hip-hop comp brought out
some stunning creativity.
Our congratulations go to all the competitors -
they blew us and the audience away with their
RAW talent and enthusiasm to perform. Thank you
all for the great show.
It just proved that there are a lot performers
that were just waiting for this big chance.
That's what RAW Sound is all about. We are
giving those people a unique experience and
exposure. We can't wait to see what they
can achieve in the future.
Their performances combined with the great
auditorium at the Dallas Brooks Centre and the
professional sound & lighting to make a very
entertaining event.
The success of this event has encouraged us to
plan a follow up event, probably early 2006.
So watch out for RAW SOUNDS 2.
Special message from Tita Liz:
I hope everyone enjoyed RAW Sounds as much as I
did. I watched most of the performances and
everyone demonstrated their full potential. I am
very proud of you ALL and I am filled with joy
to see each group perform full of confidence and
giving their best on the night. I'm sure your
supporters are all proud of you as well.
It takes a lot of courage to get up in the
spotlight in front of of so many people. You've
shown your talent, creativity, team work and
enthusiasm.
Congratulations to all of you Singers and
Dancers, and extend my thanks to your families &
supporters who made this event possible.

like:

ISRAEL
Friday, January 14, 2005
Twenty two year old Israel has
been on a long and sometimes difficult journey
to reach where he is today.
But rather than dwelling on the negative, Israel
uses his past as motivation for his future. With
an unshakeable faith in his destiny Israel has
spent seven years immersed in music, resulting
in a catalogue of 450 songs, music publishing,
recording deals and his debut single "Wake Up
With You" and debut album 'Chapter 1"
This event presented Israel’s perspective on
his journey through the music industry, in a
full-length concert/musical production that
blended Israel’s original music, dancing and
drama. Israel was backed up by rappers KA$H
and Vallerie.
Melbourne’s hottest dance
crews were dancing back up for Israel, as
well as acting : Detour, Funkey Fresh, Platinum,
Replay, Rewind and of course ViKiNGs.
We are so proud of the show we
put together with Israel, his crew and all the
other people involved. Feedback on this
event was so positive, including: "I was brought
to tears". Let us know what you thought.
