Kylie started writing songs from a very early age. She grew up in a musical house hold and was strongly influenced by her family’s love of Australian poets including CJ Dennis, Henry Lawson, Banjo Paterson and Mary Gilmore. 


Kylie’s singing career kicked off in the late eighties, singing in bars in Sydney’s inner west. She recorded two albums with the Snow Leopards on Waterfront Records which lead to tours in the early nineties. Since then Kylie has sung in many line ups and has supported such acts as Mental as Anything, Richard Clapton, Beccy Cole, Justin Standley and many more.
