Opening the Dreamtime AFL Match in language in 2011, Bemrose is now taking his voice to the next level, as has just been accepted into a prestigious artist's residency in London.

"In the last three years I've graduated from the Victorian College of the Arts, I've worked with Deborah Cheetham on Pecan Summer and I had a lead role in that for the first two seasons and I've now gone on to work with Opera Australia with two contracts, so I think my ten-year goal has been squashed into three".
