"This Music" is the debut studio album by Australian singer-song writer Celia Pavey. It was released in July 2013 and peaked at number 14 on the ARIA Charts.
In 2013, Celia Pavey auditioned for The Voice Australiaand was mentored by Delta Goodrem. In June, she was proclaimed as the second runner up behind Harrison Craig and Luke Kennedy. She was signed to Universal Music Australia immediately following the show and recorded an album featuring songs Pavey had performed on the show along with 'a couple of extras'.
"Believe Me" was released as the first official single from the album on 5 July but failed to impact on the chart. [1]
In an interview with Cream Magazine in August 2013, Pavey responded the question of recording original material; "It was good fun doing covers, and cover work is really good for artists to practise, but I was really excited to get one of my own composition’s on there. And I can’t wait to do more of that." [2]
A staff writer at News.com.au gave the album 3 out of 5 stars, saying "Her "Scarborough Fair" is enchanting and her incredible version of Joni Mitchell's "Woodstock" would surely have got her a record deal with our without a hit TV show. " They were more critical of "Xanadu" saying she's "sucking all the fun out of [it]" The concluded saying they hoped Pavey would 'see the world' and make the album she wants to make. [3]
