Vanessa started her life as a vocalist at the age of 3, when she asked to sing “Don’t Worry Be Happy” with the house band at a major Country and Blues festival in Boyup Brook, Western Australia. Ever since then, Vanessa continued performing vocals, guitar and keys.

Primarily a Country/Folk, Rhythm and Blues, and Rockabilly singer as a child, in her teens Vanessa started having both traditional and contemporary singing lessons to increase her versatility.
