Meet this girl, one of six emerging artists taking part in Homegrown: Music From Here 2026.

A 14-year-old singer-songwriter, she has grown up surrounded by music and began writing songs at just nine. Music has become a way to express the things she can’t always say, while developing her skills and finding her own voice.

After four years playing ukulele, she picked up the guitar last year and is continuing to grow as an artist.

this girl will make her Burrinja debut at the Homegrown Showcase in the Lyre Room.

Meet Bee, one of six emerging artists taking part in Homegrown: Music From Here 2026.

Bee’s love of music began early, but it was during the 2020 lockdowns that they picked up a guitar, bringing songs they’d written in diaries to life.

Since then, Bee has joined school bands, performed at local markets and festivals, and developed a songwriting style exploring high school, sadness and growing up.
Now regularly gigging, Bee recently performed as a support act at The Workers Club and is working towards recording and releasing their music.

Bee, will make her Burrinja debut at the Homegrown Showcase in the Lyre Room.
