Singer Tania Doko
As half of the award winning duo Bachelor Girl, Tania Doko enjoyed success through the decade long journey with James Roche. It was 1998 when Bachelor Girl's debut single Buses & Trains leapt onto the Australian music charts.
In 1999, with four ARIA award nominations and the APRA Award for Song of The Year & PPCA Most Played song on Australian radio (Buses & Trains), Bachelor Girl rode high on the airwaves and the charts as their debut release spawned five smash hit singles including ‘Buses and Trains’, ‘Treat Me Good’’ and the popular Australian classic ‘Permission To Shine’.
Tania has just completed writing and recording a new album with her new electro rock band SHE SAID YES(SSY). Securing the support for the Darren Hayes national tour October 2007, SHE SAID YES released their critically acclaimed debut independent EP to coincide with Tania’s current national tour with fellow performers Jon Stevens, Ian Moss and Jack Jones.
It was a quick post-concert with a fan whose life was transformed by a double-lung transplant that inspired singer Tania Doko to become an ambassador promoting organ and tissue donation awareness.
“People living with heart or lung conditions, who benefit from a transplant and have such a will to live – that inspires me ten-fold,” Tania said.
“If more people knew that only 200-odd Australians actually donate their organs each year and there is the potential for many more people to be saved – wouldn’t more people ask ‘what can we do to actually make a difference?’”
