Amanda Brotchie spent her formative years recording and touring with Not Drowning Waving, and recorded with many other bands including Dave Graney and the Coral Snakes, and the Wreckery, as well as having regular solo gigs at Melbourne venues such as the Metropole and Punters Club, performing the songs of such composers as Kurt Weil, Hans Eisler, Cole Porter and Vernon Duke. And as a teenager, she tried busking in Sydney, but chivalrous old gents just kept picking her upturned hat off the ground and giving it back to her. After music Brotchie became an AFI award-winning director.
