Vix Bio

With a repertoire that spans decades & genres, coupled with her smokey powerhouse vocals, engaging style & boundless energy, it's no wonder Vix is in such high demand. 

Hailing from Queensland's Sunshine Coast, Vix is primarily a singer/songwriter of the Blues, Soul genre.

From her early roots in country music, Vix journeyed through several musical styles before being overwhelmed by a deep passion for the blues. 

For many years Vix worked side by side with the legendary Florida bluesman, Wiley Reed, developing her own Blues style & techniques before setting off to tour Europe & South East Asia.

Upon her return to Australia in 1997, Vix joined the "Vulcana Womens Circus" band, and it was here that she met the two women who would become her Blues sisters in the award winning, all female band, “Vix and the Slick Chix.

When Covid silenced the music industry, Vix re-discovered her love of street performance and could be regularly found spreading her musical joy around the Sunshine Coast streets, in a time when it was truly needed.

Most recently Vix won the ‘Peoples Choice’ & The ‘Best Overall’ awards at the Australian National Busking Championship in Stanthorpe, Queensland.

Vix continues to pursue her passion for keeping the Blues alive by gigging, writing and recording regularly with The Slick Chix.

Over the course of her career Vix has had the opportunity to work  alongside a diverse list of  notable performers, including-

"Australian Country music sensation"- Keith Urban
" Blues Piano Legend "-Wiley Reed
"The Masters Apprentices Legend"- Doug Ford
"The Sheik from Scrubby Creek"- Chad Morgan
Hey Hey it's Saturdays- Dezzy 'ANIMAL' Mckenna
 

Vix cites influences as varied as Janis Joplin, Dolly Parton, Etta James, Aretha Franklin, Willie Dixon & Van Morrison   as just some of the amazing artists who inspire and influence her work.

If you like the blues, and gritty honest lyrics encompassing life's sea of emotions, then Vix music is for you.

When playing in Solo or Duo mode Vix often utilises a Boss Looper pedal to create a full sound.
