Whistle & Trick
About the Artist
Aria-nominated children’s band, Whistle & Trick (as seen on ABC Kids) is made up of childhood friends Esther and Maddy, who are always ready to sing, dance, and cause a bit of mischief.
Esther and Maddy both come from abundant musical backgrounds, brought up in families of singer songwriters, music teachers and professional orchestral musicians. Growing up in such musical environments fuelled their interest in music, and between them they have performed in many bands all over the world.
All the while, they could never shake their love for working with children, resulting in both Maddy and Esther taking up careers in music education. With Esther then having her own child, and Maddy working in early childhood, they soon found themselves constantly making up fun little songs for kids and having a blast doing it. Finally, they realised that with their knowledge of children's education and their natural musicianship, it seemed only fitting to bring these skillsets together and thus, Whistle & Trick was born.
They have created music that is clever and thoughtful, so children don't feel like they are being spoken down to and can instead learn about their world and have their imagination take flight. Lastly, it's music that feels safe and warm, so that parents can rely on it to help settle their little ones in times of need. Whistle and Trick are so excited to share the inner workings of their wild musical brains, with a bit of sparkle and cheekiness thrown in.
