About this listen

 An honest and candid memoir from one of Australia’s most phenomenal voices. A story of determination, humility and self-discovery.

Top 10, Booktopia’s FAB Award

All Anthony Callea wanted was to sing. From his first memories of singing for his family, Anthony knew that he wanted to share his voice with the world. He had a strongly held dream but was as surprised as anyone when his breakout moment (his heart-stopping rendition of ‘The Prayer’ on Australian Idol) turned him into a household name overnight.

Now, in his own words, Anthony shares the joys and challenges of becoming celebrated for his voice, all while navigating the twists and turns of life. It’s a story of a kid from the working-class western suburbs of Melbourne with a big dream and an even bigger voice, who had to finish growing up in the spotlight.

Anthony’s 20-year career has spanned stage, arena, and screen, and he now invites you backstage to share his journey. One day you are working at a suburban shopping centre as a Freddo Frog mascot, the next you are topping charts, winning awards and sharing stages with Celine Dion, Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston.

These candid, courageous and, at times, very amusing anecdotes take us beyond the slick facade of showbiz, to the hard work, blood, sweat, and tears that it takes to become one of Australia’s most enduring and beloved entertainers.

I thoroughly enjoyed 'Beyond The Voice'. I have always loved Anthony Callea as a singer and artist, however I now have a much deeper respect for what he has had to go through to get to the place he is at now. I was engaged throughout, and there were jokes that made me let out a laugh. Thank you Anthony for writing this book to share with your fans. PS I also made my boyfriend who did not know about you before we dated listened to it too and also enjoyed it a lot and now has a newfound appreciation for you

I thoroughly enjoyed your story. Although I'm not an entertainer and I'm 76 i could see a lot of myself in your antics. i was laughing out loud in some parts and sobbing a bit in others. You're a rather good story-teller as well as being a great singer and song writer.
