GUEST PERFORMER: Ashleigh Campbell
Since winning Inverell’s Got Talent in 2015, Ashleigh has built a career in music and performance, living and working across Sydney, Melbourne and now Newcastle.
Following her HSC in 2016, Ashleigh was selected to perform at ENCORE at the Sydney Opera House, a showcase celebrating outstanding HSC Music students from across NSW. In 2018, she completed a Bachelor of Music (Music Theatre) at the Australian Institute of Music (AIM). She went on to perform professionally in theatre and cabaret, work as a children’s entertainer and music educator, and tour NSW schools with education theatre companies Echelon Productions and Gibber.
Ashleigh now works as a Registered Music Therapist, having completed a Master of Music Therapy at the University of Melbourne. She is also an NMT Affiliate with the Academy of Neurologic Music Therapy. Her clinical experience spans paediatric, adolescent, adult and aged care settings, including work at Monash Health in Melbourne, where she was involved in music therapy research and innovation.
Ashleigh is excited to return to Inverell’s Got Talent as both a guest performer and judge. Having competed in the competition herself, she looks forward to celebrating the talent and creativity of the performers coming through Inverell.
