Fresh off a breakout year, Beckah Amani has solidified herself as one of Australia’s most captivating live performers. From supporting Jorja Smith on her Australian tour to being invited by Coldplay to join them on stage in Melbourne, Beckah’s electrifying presence and powerful vocals have won over audiences on major stages. Her debut album This is how I remember it.

Combining a dynamic stage presence with deeply emotive performances, she brings her songs to life in a way that is both intimate and unforgettable.
