Join this musical journey of discovery as we unearth young emerging musical talent destined to become Australia’s next pop sensation, country rock legend or acoustic singer-songwriter.

With his alternative instruments, he will be displaying a performance that will leave you amazed.

Laura Luscombe is a singer/songwriter with a soulful voice and an acoustic pop sound with lot of experience for her young age. She placed in 3rd place at the National Regional Busking Championships in 2016 and has been performing and growing ever since. Her major musical influences are Lorde and Birdy.

Tee Shiree is one part of the country-duo Shotgun Shae, but she is performing solo for our Launch of Ipswich Unearthed. Tee Shiree, real name Tiarna, is a 19-year-old singer/songwriter. She has a strong repertoire of local and Brisbane performances, including Brisbane’s Ekka, where she performs her edgy country and blues sound. Shotgun Shae have won an award as the Overall Winner in Duet at the Queensland Champion of Champions in 2016, and they were first runner’s-up in the Aristocrat Country Entertainer in Tamworth in 2017.
