148: Montaigne

Montaigne is a singer/songwriter/performer from Sydney Australia - her new album "Glorious Heights" is out now, and she's touring the country through September - details at Montaigne.com.au We met on twitter after she tagged me in a photo that she took of an old notebook full of "I love Matt Corby" signs she and her school friend had held up in a live audience at Australian Idol about ten years ago.  That she now has a job where she's a performer is so wonderful to see. She came around to my house one morning last week, and filled the room with a powerful and loving energy - she's a really special human.  I haven't had a chance to see her live but I am hoping to get along to one of her shows because her authenticity and ability to express herself is so open and effortless, you can't help but be drawn in to what she's creating.  Even if you're not a music head or like other kinds of music, I'm sure you'll get a lot out of this chat - we cover what it means to redefine yourself through your appearance, struggles with parents around her sexuality, and what it is to make music for a living.  I hope you get as much of a buzz out of listening to this as I did recording it. Enjoy this conversation with Montaigne.
