Tessa is an electronic pop indie singer-songwriter hailing from the Central Coast and now based in Sydney. Having entertained audiences from a young age, Tessa has cultivated her love of music and songwriting through years of dedicated practice and performance.

Her music is heavily influenced by 90's pop and is often performed with backing tracks or a live band. Despite her catchy beats, Tessa's lyrics are a powerhouse of reflection and insight, delving into the difficulties faced by young female artists in today's social media-dominated world. She highlights the unreliability of comparing one's own life and success to what is seen and followed on social media, urging listeners not to let the curated lives of strangers make them unsatisfied with themselves.

Tessa's music also draws on her heritage and sheds light on the brutal effects of colonization on Aboriginal women, and the role of music in addressing injustice. She sings, "We are their daughters; We are their voices: We give them honor: Now." This is pop music with a punch, not only providing catchy tunes but also meaningful message and cultural representation.
