“calling all Carly Rae Jepsen and/or Taylor Swift stans: get this song (and the artist behind it) on your radar! big, romantic pop music at its most euphoric” – Abby Butler, Triple J.
“Abby wasn’t wrong with the CRJ comparison. It’s got that Emotion era bounce and sheen!” – Dave Ruby Howe, Triple J.
“There’s a real timelessness to this single; it’s cleverly written, intricate, desperately polished and oh so catchy. It wouldn’t be out of place on bodies of work by some of international pop’s biggest names (we could seriously imagine Carly Rae Jepsen snaffling it up)” – AUSPOP

Independent songstress and indie-pop creative, Beks rounds out 2020 with The Thing About Us, taken from her forthcoming mixtape, and set for release on Friday 11th December. Inspired by a new era of music and songwriting, The Thing About Us showcases Beks’ innate ability to craft catchy pop hooks; uniting progressive songwriting with her lush vocal tones, reminiscent of an Australian Dua Lipa.
“I wrote this with my friends Cam Nacson (Sad Boii) and Tamika Nacson (Xira) during a songwriting session for my mixtape in October 2020. This song encapsulates the feeling of being in love and then out of love with your best friend. Your best friend that you party and wake up hungover with and then realise that you’ve crossed a line of no return, blurred the boundaries and you’re desperate to find a way back. The thing about us is there was never an ‘us’ only ever ‘you and I’” – Beks
Since September 2020, Beks has been working daily with songwriters and producers in studios within Sydney and also in the UK via Zoom to create 12 unique tracks which will feature on her debut mixtape set for release mid-2021. The mixtape features co-writes and production by Taka Perry, Jim Eliot (Ladyhawke, EAST), Xira, Cam Nacson, Tasker, Lucy Neville, Nina Jirachi, Kim Moyes (The Presets), Airports, Clara Fable and more.
Beks – The Thing About Us will be available worldwide on Friday 11th December 2020.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
