It’s cool to cry
thanks to new Alt Pop artist
CRY BABY

Turning the time-old insult on its head, Sunshine Coast alt pop artist, Cry Baby is wearing her emotionality as a badge of honour and makes you feel like you can too with her self-titled debut single, Cry Baby, out on 28 August.
Cutting her teeth busking in Brisbane’s Fortitude Valley, Cry Baby sure knows how to turn a sad song into a cool bop with catchy lyrics, gripping vocals and punchy production.
“This first song introduces who I am. Once upon a time, being called a ‘cry baby’ used to break me. It made me feel weak, but now I’ve turned it into my superpower,” said Rebekah Winnett on claiming her new moniker.
“I don’t want anyone else to be held back because they’re sensitive or emotional. We shouldn’t see feelings as flaws, but as badges of honour. No one should ever have to apologise for being connected with their emotions and for essentially being human.”
Produced by brother, Judah Winnett, this is the first taste from Cry Baby’s breakup concept EP, which is due for release in 2021 and features collaborations with fellow Queensland talents Christian Patey, AYLA and Jye Pouzet (Lunar Phase).
“Everyone’s been through heartbreak and ridden those waves of emotion. I hope you can listen to my songs on the kitchen floor with a glass of wine, or they get you up dancing with your friends, or better still, both!”
Taking you on a journey through the good, the bad and the ugly sides of heartbreak, Cry Baby’s compelling brand of alternative pop will make you want to cry, dance – and most importantly – not care who’s watching.
Cry Baby’s debut, self-titled single is out 28 August 2020.

AMNPLIFY – DB

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.
