Melbourne musician Monique Dimattina spend lockdown creating a new album. The result is ‘Tides’.

“Yes, I don’t write often,” she writes.” During the 2020 lockdown though, I did write a new solo piano album – and one stormy night in November, some buddies and I snuck into the Australian Piano Warehouse and recorded it.

‘Serafina Lucid Dreamer’ previews the album.

Monique will perform a preview of the album and has also shared links on how to grab a copy…
