Sydnee Carter

Growing up in Perth, Sydnee’s grasp on performing was swift. Always wanting to be the centre of attention as a child, she would wield a black electric guitar everywhere she went, eventually learning how to play it when her parents observed her interest in music and enrolled her in guitar lessons while in primary school. At ten years old, she would watch YouTube tutorials of her favourite songs and attempt to create similar music of her own in her first experiences with songwriting, one that she cringes when looking back on. “All of the songs were about how being a tomboy, I just saw all the boys at school as friends, and how I got so frustrated when the girls started wanting all their attention,” she laughs.

Now, Sydnee Carter is a multi-WAM Award winner, with collaborations alongside Paces, SLUMBERJACK, 360 and Kuren all under her belt.
