BRETT MOONEY
Los Angeles, The South Pacific and most of Australia. These are some of the areas Brett has covered singing his own style of music and developing individual guitar skills.
His many years experience in entertainment is a testament to Brett's maturity, reliability and professionalism. Brett has also made numerous TV appearances on local and national shows. It was London in the 1970's where he was encouraged and taught by recording artist Belle Gonzalez. Brett founded a music club in Papua New Guinea after this time and then moved on to New Zealand to begin a very successful career writing and performing . After returning to Australia he spent 13 years in the Northern Territory before moving to the Gold Coast where he established a formidable reputation as a versatile solo entertainer. 'Scorpio' formed in 1993 from the growing need for top quality duos and as they say, the rest is history.
