So grateful to perform for almost 200,000 people at Coca-Cola Christmas in the Park with Stan Walker, Vince Harder and Jakiel Mariner (from Fourtunate).

These guys aren’t just amazing artists, but also good friends, which made it even more of an awesome time.

Hope you enjoyed it as much as we did, NZ!

With some of my Jireh boys, Vince & Turanga.

Our sis, Ginny Blackmore, came by to hang.

It’s X-Factor Australia meets X-Factor NZ! Good meeting Benny Tipene, talented & a cool cat.

Wow what an honour to spend the day in the studio with the legendary Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins.

He’s worked with people like Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Justin Bieber and Britney Spears – no biggie.  A musical genius & such a cool guy.

With the man, Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins.

Well and truly carols season, I couldn’t be more stoked to join Hope 103.2 FM’s Carols Hope LIVE.

Got to sing some of my favorites, including The First Noel, The Christmas Song and my Christmas single, O Holy Night.  My friends Prinnie Stevens and Brittany Cairns were on deck too, making it our first show together.  Last but not least, I had the most amazing time meeting the fans – my highlight of the night by far!

Huge thanks again to the Hope 103.2 FM team for having me, I loved it.

At Christmas Hope LIVE, about to hit the stage!

Had the pleasure of not only performing but also emceeing the Annual Lighting of the Tree Ceremony at Rouse Hill Town Centre.

It was officially my first ever emcee gig and gotta admit: I was kinda nervous going into it.  But man it was so much fun, and I actually had nothing to worry about!

Huge thanks to the RHTC team for having me and to everyone who came along on the night.

Reenactment of The Last Supper.

Last week I had greatest the biggest of honor of all: playing Jesus in a reenactment of Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper, for 20th Century Fox’s media launch of The Bible Series DVD/blue-ray.

The event was held in Circular Quay, attracting media coverage from The Daily Telegraph, Kyle & Jackie O and mX Magazine.
