About Me

Renae Brennen is a folksinger and songwriter from Melbourne, Australia.She has been writing and performing her own songs for over ten years and draws on a wide range of musical influences, including folk, country and the blues. Renae’s compelling voice and robust guitar style give her performances a passionate and infectious flavour.With a vocal ability to express strength and humour or vulnerability and pain in equal measure, Renae creates an instant connection with listeners as she explores the joys of love, the pain of loss, and the importance of faith and finding the strength to pick yourself back up again.Combined with lyrics that are honest, direct and sometimes defiant, Renae’s music reflects her strong belief in the power of song.Renae is concentrating on getting an EP recorded this year and doing as many live performances as possible.
