Noelani is a singer-songwriter, also known as MONRXE. Raised in Meanjin/Brisbane and currently based in Naarm/Melbourne, she is not just a formidable musician but also a fierce champion for representation and education across gender & race intersectionalities. Noelani is driven by a desire to make the music industry more accessible to marginalised communities, championing safe spaces of mutual respect, equality, diversity & authenticity.
She is a committee member for Black Music Alliance Australia, a non-for-profit that advocates for education, equity & representation of Black music & culture from the African Diaspora within the Australian music industry. She also works with One of One, another non-for-profit organisation that empowers women and gender non comforming people within Australian music.
We met just a few weeks ago, when we both took part in Green Music Australia’s climate leadership retreat. Note: Noelani’s views expressed in the conversation are her own, and do not necessarily reflect the views of the various organisations that she is associated with.
