Carla Troiano is Melbourne’s most glamorous soul chanteuse. The front woman of one of Australia’s leading funk/soul bands Mayfield, and a core member of the Women of Soul Collective, she is currently working on her solo debut LP. On Women of Soul’s “Feel Good” Carla sings two tracks; the soaring soul ballad ‘Not Ready To Say Goodbye’ and ‘I’m On It’, a sassy disco anthem.
My Dream Rider
1. Green Velvet couches- It’s giving Mariah Carey Energy in a green room!
2. Unlimited Natural Oysters- They are my absolute favorite! I can never have enough
3. A wall of gold mirrors floor to ceiling- I am obsessed with vintage gold florentine Italian gold mirrors at the moment. They give me queen energy!
4. Grey goose! It’s my favorite drink. I’m not really a champagne kinda gal
5. A glam station, with holly-wood mirrors and pink fluffy chairs to glam up in before a show for me and my team. With the best hair and make up artists from all over the world.
6. Pizza and pasta flown in from Italy (because, why not!) for after the show. She loves her carbs.
7. A Dolce and Gabbana, Versace, Gucci, Prada wardrobe on hand and custom designed costumes from each designer
8. Fairy lights all over the green room with custom lighting.
9. A massage therapist on hand for before and after the show.
10. Nergonis, Gin Martinis, and I’d would be really RAD to have Prince, Aretha, MJ & Chaka Khan to play us a private show, after the show for our after party while we eat pizza and pasta!! Hahaha
