Bloom’s Adele and Amy Winehouse Songbook show is coming to Wagga

Amanda Canzurlo, known on stage as Bloom, is headed to Wagga with her Adele and Amy Winehouse cover show. 

Although Bloom writes her own songs, in 2016 she decided to tour a show paying tribute to two of her favourite artists. 

“It was an organic choice because I was a huge fan,” she said. 

“I also wanted a challenge vocally and I figured when else would we get the opportunity to create a night to celebrate the hits of Amy Winehouse and Adele.

“My own writing style is very similar.” 

Bloom spent three days deciding on what her stage name would be to ensure she picked the right one. 

“Amanda deals with so many of life's pressures,” she said. 

“I felt it easier to get into the zone and I could really connect in another level as Bloom. It's still me, but it's the purest part of me that it isn't frustrated by life.

“I liked having a word rather than a name because it had mystery.”

Bloom started singing when she was four and also learnt the piano and how to dance. 

“My mum would say I was singing before I learnt how to talk,” she said. 

“I grew up in Perth and did the whole pub-circuit, but when I moved to Melbourne I wanted to work to a more attentive audience and do more of a show.”

Bloom said the audience had a lot to gain from attending her concert. 

“I am more exciting than Netflix and I am cheaper than therapy,” she joked. 

“You go on a journey where you learn about the girls through their songs. 

“You’ll laugh, cry and want to ring your ex-boyfriends at some point, so it’s kind of like a chick flick in concert form.

Bloom said she is excited to be performing alongside artists who have a extensive background themselves with James Morley, who is ex Angels, Choirboys and worked with Jon English, Jeff Consi, from Badloves, and Stuart Johnston, who also worked with Jon English.
