Meet the people at SongDivision.
Our team is made up of world-class musicians, presenters and highly experienced business professionals who have decades of experience in engaging people. What unites us? A passion to create lasting bonds amongst people using the science of music.
Saskia loves learning new things, kitchen discos, making meaningful connections, and listening to music at every chance she gets.
Formerly a Londoner, she's now settled in Sydney where she runs a life coaching business alongside her role at SongDivision, all while balancing life with her husband, daughter, and mischievous French Bulldog, Louis.
Sam’s accolades include winning ‘Future Leader’ awards for both Meetings & Events Australia (MEA) and the Professional Convention Management Association (PCMA). In 2017, Sam was included in Connect Corporate’s esteemed list of ’40 under 40’ industry professionals.
Sam’s professionalism and energy has made him a favourite among some of the biggest brands in the world including Coca- Cola, Microsoft, McDonald’s, Spotify, and Fujitsu . However, Sam’s greatest professional moment was performing at a Virgin Airlines event where Sir Richard Branson planted a kiss on Sam’s cheek. He’s still blushing.
Sam earned a Bachelor’s Degrees in Music Studies (Classical Voice) from Sydney Conservatorium of Music.
In addition to her passion for music and the arts, at school, Amber noticed that she had a natural flair for languages and went on to receive a BA in Modern Languages (French, Spanish and Italian) from the University of Bristol.
As a recent member of the SongDivision team, Amber has been able to combine her love for music and languages by hosting and delivering sessions in both French and Spanish.
"If you told me back in the 90’s, what I’d be doing now, I would have raced through life to get here. Not something I should probably advertise, but working with SongDivision is a role I would gladly do for free! I work with uber talented, creative people (predominantly musicians), and for a company that supports organisations with engagement through music. It’s first and foremost, fun.
"Stamina and loyalty are at the core of my working life having held two major careers thus far. Working for Australian Red Cross for 13 years as a Social Worker, predominantly in child protection, I was fortunate to manage a tiered program for young women and their children experiencing homelessness. Too many highlights to mention here, but securing funding for programs to support their specific education, health, housing, and mental health priorities, was metamorphic. Becoming an International Humanitarian Delegate, working specifically in Sri Lanka after the 2004 Tsunami, and becoming Red Cross’ primary keynote speaker were other highlights."
Having celebrated 14 years with SongDivision this year, Monica breathes its objective to build teams through music. Her job is one where she builds trust with her clients to find creative music-fuelled solutions for a variety of scenarios including company mergers, newly established teams, company rebrands, experiential campaigns and complex entertainment briefs. Monica has been instrumental in securing ‘Meeting and Events Australia’s’ National Support Services Award, Best Team Building Supplier and Best CSR Program, over multiple years.
From a family of well-known musicians, you’ll likely catch Mon in the car doing the soccer and netball runs, between killer serves on the tennis court, teaching ethics classes at school, and eating chocolate.
"I understand the power of music first-hand and share it at every event I work on, even though I listen to EDM much more now - though Nirvana never gets old."

The most powerful team building investment you can make.
We turn any challenges your teams are facing into opportunities by using the power of music to break barriers, spark connection, and create successful teams that work in harmony, achieve great things, and reach their full potential together.
What if my team isn’t very musical?
That’s absolutely fine! Our sessions are designed for everyone, regardless of musical ability. It’s all about having fun, connecting with each other, and experiencing something new together. Plus, our world-class musicians guide you every step of the way.
How does this sort of activity engage introverts and ensure everyone gets involved?
We have been doing this for over 20 years and have perfected our process to ensure everyone gets involved. Our team are experts in creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment. Plus, no one is forced to do anything they’re uncomfortable with.
There are different roles suited to all personality types, and music is a universal language. You’ll be amazed at how quickly everyone relaxes and gets into the groove. In our experience, it’s often the introverts who surprise everyone by stepping up and becoming part of the action.
As one of our clients said, “Everyone participated. There was no dominant person and no one hiding in the background.”
Won’t it be cheesy?
On the contary! Our programs are high-end, polished, and expertly produced. You won’t be sitting around singing kumbaya (unless you want to!). It’s more like attending an amazing gig with your colleagues, where everyone gets to shine.
Actually its even better than being an audience member at a gig – you’re team are actually IN THE BAND with some of the best musicians on the planet!
How is it different from other types of team building?
It’s completely original, unforgettable, and powerful. We craft songs around your values, core messages, or event themes, ensuring they stick. Plus, music instantly lifts everyone into the right mindset to bond and work together. So not only are you uniting your people, you’re also reinforcing your key messages at the same time!
Will people have to sing on their own?
Nobody has to sing on their own! Our experiences cater to all personalities and skill sets. From writing lyrics to creating the perfect rhyme, there’s a role for everyone. And trust us, by the end, even the quietest team members find themselves having a blast!
How much does it cost?
We’re definitely not the cheapest, but we are the best at bringing your culture to life. And that’s very different from going bowling or hiring a local cover band. The investment is worth the unique, high-impact experience your team will never forget. Our virtual experiences start from 7k, and our in-person experiences start from 10k.
How does it work with larger groups?
With over 20 years of experience with the world’s leading companies under our belt, we have perfected the art of engaging large groups in a cohesive, fun, and meaningful way. You’ll just have to book a call us to find out how we do it!
Can a one-off event really change company culture?
CEOs tell us every week how our experiences enable their teams to feel what it’s like to be in a high-performing, cohesive team that can achieve things they didn’t think were possible. Plus, many companies don’t just use us for one event. We’re an ongoing and trusted partner in connecting their people, nurturing their culture and bringing their ‘big messages’, values and strategy to life.
Do you have a package you could suggest to me based on the needs of my team?
We sure do! Every one of our packages is designed to move your team or organization from a ‘not ideal’ and possibly discordant state to one that’s harmonious and purposeful, where your people are collectively working towards a common business goal.
Check out our packages here, and find the perfect fit for your needs. Or better yet, book a call and let’s chat about how to bring out the best in your people, just like we’ve done for leading companies in Tech, Finance, Pharma, and more around the world. In our experience, a quick chat with our team often brings clients a lot of clarity on how our services can support them!
Let us help you and your team find the right groove!
