Soul Mystique
Soul Mystique is a quick
costume change dance
act. This act resurrected the ancient Russian art of quick change with
dance steps and delivered it to a modern audience. A very entertaining
act from down under.
Col-E-Flower
Col-E-Flower is described
as a vegetable
musician. No, not a vegetable parading around Australia playing music,
but rather a gentleman with a keen ear for unusual instruments. Most
people things a carrot is something you consume, not this guy, he has
managed to find another entire use for it, take a look at this clip.
Herb Patten
Herb was the
runner-up in Australia’s Got Talent 2007. Herb is a master of the
traditional aboriginal music art of Gumleaf playing. The Gumleaf is one
of the most flexible natural objects to be found in Australia. Herb has
developed the talent to use the Gumleaf as a musical instrument to play
many popular songs. The sound from the Gumleaf is truly amazing.
Al Miller
Warning, this act is not for the faint hearted. Al Miller is a
contortionist, in this clip he demostrats what most people would never
dream of doing with their tennis racket or pool queue. This is
definetly not one to be tried at home.
Max Foster
Max

three. He showed very early promise and began taking lessons at the age
of 8. Before entering Australia’s Got Talent at the age of 15, he had
