Writing songs at 2am on her floordrobe is how Tiarnie tries to make sense of the magical, messy moments of her 20's. Tiarnie is a singer, songwriter, guitarist, and most importantly - a storyteller. Growing up on a cattle farm on the outskirts of Canberra/Ngunnawal Country, Tiarnie turned to songwriting as a form of therapy. An over-thinker, over-feeler and over-sharer, she has supported legendary artists such as Kingswood, The Vanns, Ali Barter and The Rubens. Tiarnie relocated to Alice Springs/Mparntwe to sink her bare feet into the red dirt in 2025. This new chapter of life in Central Aus is inspiring an era of music that is more introspective than ever. This past year, Tiarnie has represented Australia at the International Songwriters Week at PopAkademie Germany, headlined the Top Half Folk Festival and completed her Bachelor of Music. This September will see her embarking on the biggest adventure yet with her project Red Dirt to Blue Ocean NT Tour 2026. Between road tripping days screaming ABBA in the car, Tiarnie has planned an NT tour along the Stuart Highway, presenting intimate performances in Alice Springs, Tennant Creek, Daly Waters, Katherine and Darwin.
Though Tiarnie's music is deeply personal, it is rooted in everyday experiences, with universally relatable themes of love, loss and self-discovery. Sharing these vulnerable, honest stories in a safe space will hopefully encourage conversation and connection, further strengthening the tight-knit community feel that already exists in these remote and regional locations.
