Shanleigh Rose is an emerging country-pop singer-songwriter from Maleny, Queensland, with a gift for heartfelt storytelling and shimmering melodies. Since winning the 2023 NAB Gympie Muster Junior Talent Search and graduating from the CMAA Junior Academy, she’s built momentum with award-winning songwriting, including the Tamworth TSA John P. Toomey prize and the CCMA Junior Songwriter title in 2023.

At just 21, Shanleigh brings emotional depth, lyrical maturity, and bright promise to the Australian music scene – with more singles and festival appearances lined up ahead.
