testimonials

“APA is a wonderful inclusive music group that is fun, friendly and helps build confidence in people. My daughter has been part of the APA community for nearly 3 years now and just loves it. Fantastic performances from the whole group thanks to the amazing guidance and teaching of the directing staff. Thanks Saskia, you’re the best.”

Lance – parent

“We LOVE APA! Every singer is included and supported, and they all have an absolute ball. Saskia and her team are totally dedicated and do an awesome job.”

Jeremy – parent

“My daughter joined the Australian Pop Academy on her 10th birthday, not knowing anyone, but from day one, she felt welcomed and encouraged by both the coaches and her fellow members. APA is wonderfully inclusive, with a diverse group of students who support each other at every turn, joined together by a love of music. Over time, I’ve seen her grow tremendously – she’s developed her harmonies, stage presence, and performance skills in ways I could not have imagined. The coaches are exceptional, fostering a supportive and encouraging environment that builds both skills and confidence. We’re incredibly grateful for this experience!”

Kylie – parent

“Both my boys have participated in APA. The classes have nurtured them towards being competent & confident performers. These are skills they have taken into all areas of their lives. It’s been a positive & supportive community. Our family is very grateful to have been part of APA and the end of semester showcase performances are fabulous!!”

Alison – parent

“The vocal and choreographic experience that a child can gain from the Pop Academy would definitely prepare them for a superb career in pop music.”

Lemar, British R&B soul singer

Lemar signed long-time Pop Academy member “Effie” to his record label

“It never ceases to amaze me how much raw, untapped, young talent there is here. These guys are doing some serious training for a cut-throat industry but having a lot of fun doing it. I’ll be keeping my eye on this lot…”

Mark Hill, Award Winning Songwriter/Producer for Craig David and The Artful Dodger

 

In June 2022, members of APA were invited to perform harmony vocals for the “Bloom sings Stevie Nicks, Carole King & Linda Ronstadt” songbook tour across the West Coast.

“It was a truly one of a kind introduction to a highly professional performance environment, with great behind the scenes experiences such as rehearsals, sound-checks and backstage dancing!”

Carys Kinnell, Performer

 

For the past 2 years, APA has been invited to perform at Perth Pop Showcase at the Rosemount Hotel, opening for artists such as Michael Kay, Calla, CHEZ, Sebastian Coe, Project BEXX, Any Girl, Bad Weather and Elianie.

“It’s been a fantastic experience for the students, being able to work alongside such a talented and diverse range of artists that will undoubtedly inspire their own performances.”

Saskia Glass, Artistic Director

 

APA has opened for a multitude of Western Australian music artists, including Michael Kay, Calla, CHEZ, Sebastian Coe, Project BEXX, Any Girl, Bad Weather and Elianie!
