Please join us as we welcome Anita Spring to chat with Heart of Indie Radio Co-Host Emme Lentino
Spring was destined to become an entertainer, born into the world
by two talented parents that toured nationally and internationally
with many artists including Johnny O’Keefe and Bob Hope.
Anita has been performing nationally and internationally as a singer,
actor and dancer since the age of 9.
By the age of 15, Spring was performing eight shows a week in Elvis -
The Musical at The Footbridge Theatre produced by The Gordon
Frost Organisation in Sydney. Many other roles in musicals followed
including a lead in the Revolution Will Not Be Televised at the
Seymour Theatre, Grease – The Musical in Chang Mai Thailand also
produced by The Frost Organisation and Bad Boy Johnny and The
Profits of Doom at the Enmore Theatre. It was this show where she
worked alongside Doc Neeson, Chris Bailey and Christine Anu. Later, Spring joined Anu again as
her backing singer and this lead to other opportunities with other Australian and International
Artists (featured below).
A performance with Powderfinger at the ARIA Awards led to Spring being signed as a recording
artist to Universal Music. In 2003 Spring's first single, Blink - Stay A Little Longer, reached No:7 on
the ARIA Australian Singles Chart.
Anita has composed and released her own songs over the past three years, gaining her attention
as a promising Songwriter and Artist in her own right. Her original songs recently charted at No:2
on AMRAP and No:2 on Australian Country Radio. Her original compositions also have featured
on KIX Country Australia, ABC Country, Grant Broadcasters, Australian Country Radio
Syndication, FLOW FM Network, 3AW and dozens of community radio station across the country.
Her music videos for her original songs have also been featured on CMT (Country Music Television
Australia) and TCN (The Country Network) airing across every State in the Untied States of
America which is a great achievement for an independent Australian Country Music Artist.
Anita is currently paying tribute to Olivia Newton-John in a stage show ICONS in Concert which is
currently touring nationally and has been praised over her portray and vocal performance of Olivia
in this role.
