“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” – Maya Angelou

This belief sits at the heart of Sidney’s artistry. Known for her raw emotion, poignant storytelling, and bittersweet melodies, the Australian singer-songwriter crafts songs that leave a lasting impression—long after the final note. With a growing global audience and critical recognition, she’s fast becoming one of the most compelling voices in indie-pop.

Named Beat Magazine’s Artist to Watch in 2023, Sidney’s upward momentum has continued into 2024 with a breakout year. Her viral covers of “Truly Madly Deeply,” “Simply the Best,” and “Adore U” have collectively amassed over 13 million views across TikTok and Instagram, with “Truly Madly Deeply” alone reaching more than 7 million views, inspiring over 12,000 TikTok videos, and racking up 1.6 million Spotify streams. These renditions have become wedding soundtracks across the globe, further solidifying her emotional reach and broad appeal.

Her live presence took a major leap forward when she joined international trio Tiny Habits as main support when they were on touring with Gracie Abrams and was invited back for a full national tour later in the year. She’s also shared the stage with some of Australia’s most beloved acts including Angus & Julia Stone, The Rubens, Harrison Storm, Gretta Ray, Mia Wray, Bones & Jones, Shannen James, and Ben Abraham. Whether performing with a full band or captivating a crowd solo with just her guitar, Sidney’s shows are known for their sincerity, humour, and magnetic connection with the audience—qualities that have made her a go-to support act across the country.

A versatile creative behind the scenes, Sidney has written with a growing list of acclaimed artists including 360, Drew Kennedy (BMG), The Young Fables (BMG) Ūla, GRAACE, San Joseph, and Eliott—proving her strength not only as a performer but as a trusted collaborator and storyteller.

Her 2023 sophomore EP Sore Loser—featuring fan favorites “Cool Girl” and “Bad Light”—was met with widespread acclaim. It received editorial support from Spotify (New Music Friday AU & NZ, Fresh Finds, Pop n’ Fresh, Equal AU & NZ), Apple Music (New Music Daily), and earned Triple J Unearthed’s Track of the Day, alongside commercial radio play on NOVA FM and Triple J. The project culminated in a sold-out headline show in Melbourne. Her debut EP Imposter (2022) laid early groundwork, with over 700,000 streams and strong playlist momentum.

Sidney has consistently maintained over 100,000 monthly Spotify listeners for more than a year, reflecting a steady and growing fanbase that stretches well beyond viral moments. That community—affectionately known as the Sore Loser Club—has become a genuine movement, with fans flocking to sold-out shows like her secret garden event and a recent acoustic tour across Sydney and Brisbane.

Recently signing a global deal with Nettwerk, Sidney is currently writing in Nashville, spending the month writing daily with some of the city’s most respected and exciting creatives—marking a pivotal new chapter in her career as she lays the foundation for international touring and future releases.

Next week, she’ll unveil her most anticipated original song to date—’how sweet’. After resonating deeply across multiple TikTok videos and earning over 1.5 million views, the track has struck a chord with listeners for its heartfelt vulnerability and warmth.

Sidney’s trajectory is defined by connection, craft, and conviction. With a voice that can carry a room and a presence that wins one over, she continues to shape a distinct space in today’s music landscape—making her one of Australia’s most exciting emerging artists to watch.
