About ENZA PANTANO PEERS
It’s not every day that you come across a lady who is loved all who know her and who has earned the respect of all her peers in the music industry…
The very talented Enza Pantano Peers, has enjoyed success as a singer since the early age of 13. She has worked nationally & internationally, sharing the stage with greats such as Tom Jones, Joe Cocker, Bonnie Raitt, Chaka Khan, Barry Manilow, Roger Daltry, Errol Brown, Thelma Houston, The Commodores, Tina Arena….the list goes on and on….
Behind the scenes, Enza has worked as a backing vocalist on every major television variety show across Australia as well as touring and performing her live shows.
At this stage of her life, Enza is working on her biggest performance to date!
Our dear friend ENZA, has been fighting with the silent killer……."CANCER".
For the last 4 years Enza has had major Surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy
and now continues to FIGHT her next battle with BLOOD CANCER.
When Enza’s name is mentioned amongst our talented music industry, all who have been fortunate to have worked with her share the same sentiments. Her professionalism and beautiful nature is what they hold dear. It comes as no surprise that all these people that have been involved in Enza’s career, have jumped at the chance to come together to pay tribute to this amazing lady.
Singer-Songwriter/ Musician & friend John St. Peeters
has decided to put together this Special evening to assist Enza with her ongoing fight against cancer.
“In all my years in this industry, I have never come across a person who has so much respect,
not only as a singer, but also as a human being, as Enza Pantano Peers.
When I decided to organise this event, everyone I called upon to take part in this Special evening for Enza, came back in one voice – ‘count me in! Anything for this beautiful lady’,
including some of the Artists appearing have cancelled prior bookings to be there for Enza”.
....John St.Peeters
THINGS CANCER CAN'T KILL WHEN IT COMES TO ENZA!
It can't kill love
It can't kill hope
It can't kill confidence
It can't kill courage
It can't kill friendship
It can't kill memories
That's Right!

FROM ADAM HOWARD
Dear friends and colleagues
I am reaching out to to all of you to help me with a fundraiser for two great Australian stunt people who have recently been hit extremely hard times.
Lance Anderson lost his leg this past Christmas and has a young family.
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0027050/?ref_=fn_al_nm_3
Nigel Harbach is battling cancer.
He had to sell his home recently as is bringing up a new ba.
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0361876/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1
The Stuntmens Charity Ball fundraiser will be held on June 28th, 2014 at the Jupiter Casino on the Gold Coast in Queensland Australia. The hope is that this will become an annual event in support of the stunt community in Australia.
I know that our international film community will stand up and support those in need, no matter where in the world they are. So will you please donate something for the auction to help raise money to support Lance and Nigel?
Film and TV Props, miniatures, crew gear, crew signed scripts, crew signed posters, autographed books, clapper boards, DVD's, toys, clothing anything you can think of. These donations will be so greatly appreciated our stunt brothers and sisters in Australia and I thank you in advance for your generosity and support with this event.
Please contact me directly for more information via email at adamhowardvfx@gmail.com or phone at 415-971-8877
I look forward to hearing from you
Cheers
Adam
