Music Career

Currently based in the UK, Natalie’s professional music career began on the island of Ibiza in 2012, where she quickly connected with the islands music scene, receiving invitations to play at Healing Ibiza, Atzaro and Ibiza Rocks Hotel. In 2016, she formed her band eXhale while producing her second album of the same name in Goa, India — a place she called home for 20 years. That album, funded via Indiegogo and mastered by Pete Maher (Lana Del Rey, U2), earned features on Ibiza Global Radio and in the Amazon Prime film Shreelancer.

With an international, fluid lineup of musicians, eXhale became a favorite across Goa’s thriving live music scene, playing venues, festivals, and private events — including the Serendipity Arts Festival and Hilltop. The sound is vibrant and eclectic, placing rhythm and strings at the center of a fully plugged-in, groove-rich live experience.

Alongside her band work, Natalie also developed Conscious Voice — an acoustic, healing-centered offering rooted in mindfulness, ancestral wisdom, and ceremonial work. Invited to sing in shamanic ceremonies by Ninawa Pai da Mata (Huni Kuin, Brazil), and a Reiki Master since 2004, her music often channels both the visible and the unseen.

Her new EP My Sound marks the beginning of a bold new chapter. Blending reggae dub textures with soul and sacred storytelling, it offers anthems of sovereignty, prayer, and reconnection. Recorded in Goa, produced in the forests of Tuscany and finalized in the UK, this EP is a sonic bridge between worlds — honoring Natalie’s past in Goa and her emergence onto new stages in Europe.

Now back in the UK and forming a new band, Natalie is ready to bring this sound to a wider audience — staying true to her roots, her vision, and her calling to create music that heals, uplifts, and unites.

As a festival programmer I am always on the look out for music that opens people up. Natalie and her band eXhale do just that1

One of the functions of art is to connect you with the cosmos. Natalie is a living example of that

eXhale ranges from the funk-jazz track “Free To Love” and the slow jam “Sixteen Years” to the salsa-inspired “Rhythm In My Bones.

As we walked through the crowded venue [Hilltop, Goa] we were drawn to the most fabulous music….it was Natalie with her band eXhale. It is simply impossible to stand still when this sort of music is playing. After her set we booked her to come and play for a birthday party in Tuscany
