Natalie Theodore is a contemporary crossover artist and composer based in Sydney’s Northern Beaches. She discovered her love and talent for music at a young age, learning singing, guitar and piano. Her passion for the arts lead her to the stage, performing as part of Opera Australia’s children’s cast in “Turandot” (2015), as well as a von Trapp sibling in Gordon Frost’s production of the musical“The Sound of Music” (2015-2016).

Natalie then further channelled her artistic abilities into composition, sprouting from a love of songwriting and arranging, and further flourishing into an interest in film scoring and advertisement music. Because of her exploration of different genres and music production, Natalie’s sound ranges from large orchestral scores to synth and acoustic-based tunes. One thing remains common in the crossover however; the feature of in depth storytelling and infectious melodies and motifs that resonate with audiences. These characteristics, along with her knack for performance, showcase artistry that aims to enhance the emotional experience of sound.

Natalie is currently undergoing a Bachelor of Music at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, and is being guided by leading professionals in composition for the creative industries.

Natalie won the Pop category in The Songdoor International Songwriting Competition with her original song “Denim” (2023), and was one of six finalists in the Indie Film Music Contest for her rescore of the animated short “Unabducted” (Young Category, Winter Comp 2023).
