Perth Music

Formerly dubbed “The Perth Diva” by West Coast hip-hop deejay’s, Che’nelle is an Australian Singer/Songwriter/Producer who has recently signed to Virgin Records America.

Found at the ripe age of three singing in her dad’s karaoke lounge, she knew then picking up the microphone was what she was born to do. Now all of twenty-two years, Che’nelle is setting the example to be the first “Australian Urban Diva” with silky-surprising vocals that can rival Mariah Carey and even Beyonce. Creating an infectious r’n’b sound, she is also very diverse in the different rhythms of soul, reggae and dance, delivering a unique form of “NuUrban”

Lending her voice to mixtapes by DJ Ryan and Nick Toth, Che’nelle has also worked internationally with Messiahbolical’s Throwaway Rhymes (UK), and American acts including The BumSquad Djz, Dawn Robinson, Eric Benet and Cocoa Chanelle. She was recently picked up by 20 yr veteran Music Choice DJ Sir Charles Mixin Dixon as his brand new artiste on Sir Charles Independent Productions (SCIP). To top this all off, she is now a valued new signing to Virgin Records America, and to coincide with this announcement, comes the news of her shows supporting Kanye West on his Australian tour:
