Presented by: Charlee Watt
Charlee Watt is a multi-award-winning cabaret artist, producer and vocalist from Port Lincoln, SA. With SHE ROCKS: Love, Lyrics & Legacies, she leads and mentors a powerhouse band of eight musicians under 18, giving young regional artists the chance to step onto major stages—opportunities rarely available without someone determined to make them happen. The show premiered to 300 people at SALT Festival in April 2025, played to a sold-out crowd at Lefties in Whyalla, and had audiences dancing and singing at The Gov in July. Critics raved: “Charlee Watt doesn’t just remind us that She Rocks, she proves it… a show that simultaneously looks back and forward, honouring legendary female musicians while lifting up the artists of the future.” — Anita Kertes, HiFi Way.
