Katie Noonan is one of Australia's most versatile and beloved vocalists. A mother, singer, producer, songwriter, pianist and businesswoman, this five times Aria award winning and seven times platinum selling songstress first received widespread praise as the angel-voiced songstress of indie-pop band George and has since taken audiences on sublime excursions through jazz, pop and classical music.
"Right from the beginning she has stamped 'class' on her career. Very few people achieve the control, range and dynamic - supported by flawless technique, and among the pantheon of female singers she could easily claim a place next to the great Joni Mitchell in that regard." - Iva Davies (Icehouse)
"Katie is like the voice I have in my dreams. Soaring and no note too impossible to reach. She makes something so difficult seem so easy. Her voice is the sound of wonder to me." - Kate Ceberano

Katie Noonan's latest show, Late Night Tunes with Noons, came about quite by accident, in the later hours one night in winter. Noonan posted a short video on instagram of her learning a Hunters and Collectors classic for an upcoming event.
After the response to that first post, the idea evolved into a regular late night video session where Noonan interprets some of her favourite Aussie songs from across multiple decades in her intimate and dynamic style.
Featuring songs by artists such as Crowded House, Archie Roach, You Am I, Powderfinger, Cold Chisel and more, this event will showcase Noonan's unparalleled skills of re-interpretation, as well as some of her own classic tunes in an intimate solo setting.
Her first show at the Baroque Room (enter via Carrington Hotel driveway) has sold out but Noonan is putting on a second performance on Sunday, June 14 at 3pm.
Room configuration is a mix of cabaret style tables and chairs, cocktail lounges and standing/dancing.
Tickets discount early bird pre-sale $40 available from the Carrington Hotel reception or online $42.50 (including booking fees): www.stickytickets.com.au/1UEJX.
