Keen to explore new sounds and facets of her talents as a lyricist, BARKAA’s enthusiasm for new directions is palpable. In 2024 she’s set to embark on the next phase of her creative journey. With the power and spirit of her ancestors innately connected to her own ambition and drive, BARKAA re-emerges into the spotlight with new fervour and inspirations to pour into her craft.

Kobie Dee is a 25-year-old Gomeroi artist from Maroubra in South Sydney, Bidjigal Land.
