Australian singer and composer Shadi Toloui-WallaceBorn to parents of Australian and Iranian origin, Shadi’s love for music and devotion to her Faith blends these diverse origins to create music that is varied, soulful and unique.   She recently released her first album, Leather Bound Book, a collection of Baha’i Sacred Writings set to contemporary melodies with a world music flair.

She says: “I am fortunate to have many influences and inspirations. Being able to perhaps touch someone’s heart in a song through the power of music is something I treasure.  Music is truly food for the soul and, harmonised with meaningful words, can penetrate the heart of the hearer”.  Shadi is undertaking a national tour with other artists both before and after the Parliament of the World's Religions.
