Miiesha is an Australian singer-songwriter from the small Aboriginal community of Woorabinda, Queensland. She won New Talent of the Year at the National Indigenous Music Awards 2020.[1]
Background
Miiesha is an Aṉangu/Torres Strait Islander woman, and has been singing for her community since the age of 8 and has since been developing her songwriting as a teenager. Miiesha is inspired by the sounds of RnB, gospel and soul, and the power of spoken word poetry.[2]
Miiesha made her debut single "Black Privilege" in June 2019. In May 2020, Miiesha released her debut album titled, Nyaaringu; a project of 9 songs tied together through the common themes of her life, her community and her people. Her late Grandmother's interludes provide a thread between the tracks, highlighting the passing down of knowledge from Elders through the generations.[2]
