Werribee singer-songwriter Daniela Corso is back on stage, with her batteries fully charged, after a 10 year break.
Corso is firing up for her first live comeback show at The Palace Hotel in Camberwell on May 6.
After an extended break to look after her special needs son, the Sunshine-bred singer who now resides in Werribee is raring to hit the stage.
Backed by the Screaming Jets’ Paul Woseen, Mark McLeod and former Catwitch guitarist Lawrence Rhoads, Corso will showcase new songs including Part Of Us.
“This song has a country feel to it,” says Corso, who recorded it with longtime collaborator Michael Zammit in his Altona studio. She hopes the new track will land her a spot at Tamworth’s famous country music festival.
But that doesn’t mean she’ll abandon her love of full-on rock and roll, as her audience will discover in the Palace gig.
“I wrote this song (Part Of Us) because we all have a part of us that keeps us going. It’s about the things in life that lift us and ignite our fire,” she says.
Corso also does charity work when she is not behind the mike.
After breast cancer claimed the life of a relative, she wrote and recorded a song to raise money for breast cancer research and awareness.
She also persuaded Monique Brumby and Rob Farnham, John’son, to join her in a big fund-raising concert in Williamstown for the Les Twentyman Foundation and kids at risk a few years ago.
