Oh, I get a bit silly in this one. At one point I turn into a fish, so that happens. 
We are singing triad Inversions in this episode. In the C Major Scale. 
C Major Triad - 1, 3, 5, 
D minor Tirad - 1, b3, 5,
E minor Triad - 1, b3, 5,
F Major Triad - 1, 3, 5
Then to sing the first inversion, you move the 5, and you play it below the 1 and the 3, so they become:
C Major Triad - 5, 1, 3,
D minor Tirad - 5, 1, b3,
E minor Triad - 5, 1, b3,
F Major Triad -5,  1, 3,
THEN! We sing The Major Pentatonic Scale!
 1 2 3 - 5 6 - (8 8) aka: I want to go Milk a cow. 
Why so many of my exercises are about Milk, I do not know. 
Oh, and we're Sea Kelp. 

Then We sing a song for Bellingen, a beautiful town on the North Coast of Australia. I'm heading there to run a singing workshop on November 21 - 2026. You should come!
We sing:
Bellingen, How have you bee, 
I'm gonna come sing you a song, oh oh oh oh oh. 
|| C, Dmin, | Emin, Dmin, | Emin, Dmin, | F ||
I'm slowly creating an actual real released song to go with each episode, It's gonna be awesome. 
Ok. 
Sea Kelp. 
The Take Away is Be The Sea Kelp.

It would be so amazing if you could add this song to a playlist somewhere. Let it pop up while you're out walking. If you like it. That would be so appreciated. 
I made a pretty funny film clip for this one actually.

Thanks so much for listening. 
Today we talk stories about stories. 
About introducing a song and helping your audience breathe. 
Then we sing a song about Bad coffee. 

I'm playing Db Major, Db/Bb, Db/Ab, Db/Gb. 
"Bad coffee, 
still gets things done, 
In the morning light, 
in a dirty coffee mug".

Thanks so much for lending me your ears. 
Take care of yourself.

Ahoy my friends, 
Thanks so much for tuning in. We're heading on a journey about what the workshops I lead are like, Because! I'm heading out on the road baby!
I'm heading to The Northern Rivers Conservatorium in Lismore NSW,
Molesworth Hall in the Derwent Valley, In TASMANIA!
Callala Beach Community Centre in the South Coast, NSW,
and back to Bellingen, NSW, for a fun sing to end the tour!
Please check out my website if you are near any of those places! The Tour is called Spring Sing - so, from September 2026, we're off.

In this episode I sing a veeeery quick version of Siva Siva Maia by Bobby Alu, 
and then I head into a song about the Sun. 
The VERSE:
The Chords are A Major, and F#minor. 
"When that big old sun, Creeps it’s mighty way 
Through the horizon on your left 
Over and under, surprised by the thunder 
Maybe She knows what’s coming next". 
Thanks so much for listening. 
Also, 
For my dear Patreon people, Patreon is changing its terms and conditions, from "per Creation" to a monthly subscription- from November 1, 2026. As part of that big old change, I will, and have for the last few months - creating two podcasts month... Cause I reckon, for that change, I want to make it really worth your while. 
So. Just so you know, just because I have legends in Patreon, there's more episodes squeaking out. 
THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING this thang. xxxx
