Still Life

Kylie Auldist has been singing for as long as she can remember and possesses an undeniable natural vocal talent: the kind of powerful yet nuanced soul voice that comes along only once in a while, and when you ve heard it once you never quite forget it. She is half-Samoan but born and bred in the outback of Australia. Kylie recorded her first song at the age of six, and from the age of fifteen could be found singing country and western songs in pubs which, for the only non-white in town, was a gutsy move (in her words it was a bit like the reverse of Steve Martin in The Jerk ).
