Tilarni is a singer with a gifted soulful voice that can cover anything from Jazz, soul R&B to pop music. She first sang from a young age in her Church choir and when she left school, one of her earliest breaks was to sing on two Australian film soundtracks with CBS Records for ‘Boulevard of Broken Dreams’ and ‘What the Moon Saw’.
Her pursuit in following her dreams led to her front-lining an 8-piece funk band Mr. Briefcase together with (now husband David) became a Grand-finalist in the Australian Yamaha Rock Battle of the Bands competition on MTV.
Voice training with teachers who have trained other industry professionals were always a part of her journey and successes up until now.
The opportunity to perform on TV first as a backup singer and then scooping a regular solo spot for nearly six years on Channel Ten – Bert Newton’s Good Morning Australia show kept her active in Melbourne’s music industry.
She has performed and continues to perform with some of Melbourne’s best singers and musicians in 5-star venues such as the Sofitel, the Hyatt, Le Meridien at Rialto, The Crowne Plaza & Crown Casino for a variety of corporate and private functions.
