Bio
It was evident from a young age that there was something special about Cavan Te.
Born in Sydney Australia, Cavan showed precocious vocal talent first witnessed by his parents at the age of 6, when he would entertain a train filled with passengers during their family vacations.
By the time Cavan had written his first song, he had performed to 20,000 people at the Sydney Entertainment Centre for the Schools Spectacular, received a cameo appearance on Australia’s top TV drama Home & Away, and was the first student inducted into Australian Talent Development Program.
He soon became part of the Australian music industry where he wrote, recorded, and produced his first album Blue Butterfly. This led to; Cavan winning the South Australian Festival of Original Music award with his composition 'Streetlights', the finals in Radio 'Triple J’s' Unearthed competition, radio airplay on 'ABC Radio National' & 'Triple M', one of the top 10 album releases of the year as published by '3D Magazine', and the award for Most Outstanding Male Vocalist that year and the next at the 'South Australian Music Industry Awards'.
He appeared on Australian national television as a finalist in both 'X Factor' and 'Rock Star Supernova', of which resulted in Cavan becoming resident singer on Australian Foxtel TV’s music talk show 'Studio A With Simon Burke'. There he had the delight of singing for the likes of Kate Ceberano, Alan Jones, Peter Garret, Leo Sayer, David Campbell, Noni Hazelhurst, Stuart Wagstaff, Nick Geanopolis, Glen Shorrock, Debbie Burn and Tamsin Carrol, to name a few.
Cavan has toured with and performed for prominent recording artists including: Jimmy Barnes, Roachford (UK), Jade Mac-Rae, Mark ‘Diesel’ Lizotte, Human Nature, Connie Mitchell (Sneaky Sound System), Renee Gayer, Jon Stevens, Cassandra Wilson (US), Mark Holden, Marcia & Deni Hines, Frankie Stevens (NZ), and Molly Meldrum.
Cavan Te is a singer’s singer, honest song writer, soulful performer, and quite possibly one of Australia’s most impressive unsigned vocal talents.
