Jemma Cher

Jemma Cher, a gifted Melbourne vocalist, brings maturity, sophistication, and dazzling virtuosity to each and every performance. At only 22 years old, Jemma boasts extensive stage experience which has shaped her into the artist she is today.

Her exceptional talent was recognised when she won the 'Sing Loud' competition in 2014 under the auspices of Reconciliation Australia, with judges Delta Goodrem and Gurrumul selecting her. This experience introduced Jemma to the unifying power of music and its effect on people.

Since then, Jemma has headlined over two hundred solo performances, received four Performing Arts scholarships, placed first in numerous local competitions and eisteddfods, and reached the semi-finals of the Rob Guest Endowment award at just 17 years old.

Jemma's unique vocal abilities, which include a large range, effortless tone, and exceptional control, add something special to her performances in Jazz, Gospel, and R&B genres.

Jaycee

The WA hip hop artist has the talent to back it up though, having supported the iconic The Veronicas on tour and played at beloved Aussie festivals like Groovin The Moo -those aren’t bad things to have on your CV.

Born and raised in Perth, Jaycee started his solo career by working hard and busking on the city streets. Since then, he’s not stopped creating, now boasting a discography containing over 75 original songs. He doesn’t restrict himself to one genre either, jumping easily between hip hop, R&B, funk, and soul.

With over 1.3 million followers on TikTok already, expect his following to grow after his stint on Big Brother. The self-titled “smiling assassin” should be one to watch in this season of the reality TV show.

Miiesha

"Miiesha holds multitudes – she is a movement" - Cyclone Wehner - NME

The incredible voice and storytelling of Miiesha returns as soulful and heartbreaking as ever in her new single "Damaged". After a breakout 2020 Miiesha returns with her much anticipated follow up, produced by LUCIANBLOMKAMP (6lack), with vocal production by Simon Cohen (Justin Bieber).

"Damaged is my most personal song yet, and the most painful for me. It is a song about the broken relationship I have with my mother, and how much I have wanted it to heal, and how much I have tried to fix it, only to find myself hurting more." - Miiesha

From the small Aboriginal community of Woorabinda, Australia, Miiesha arrived on the RnB landscape with a sound and a story that instantly demanded attention.

A strong, proud Anangu/Torres Strait Islander woman, Miiesha (Pronounced My-ee-sha) released her debut collection of songs entitled Nyaaringu in 2020. Meaning 'what happened' in Pitjantjatjara language, Nyaaringu explores the stories and the strength Miiesha inherited from her late Grandmother, whose interludes narrate the project. Since its release, Nyaaringu has not only garnered critical acclaim, but received the 2020 ARIA for Best Soul/RnB Release, a QLD Music Award, a NIMA, and went on to top multiple Album of the Year lists.

Inspired by the sounds of RnB, Gospel and Soul, and the power of spoken word poetry, Miiesha is using her music to bring people together to help educate and inspire.

With a voice that showcases vulnerability and strength, often in the one breath, Miiesha sings of her people, her community and her story with the raw emotion of lived experience. She weaves together the personal and political so tightly, the listener begins to understand just how inseparable they are for a young Aboriginal woman.

Miiesha's story is not just worth hearing, it's needed.
