Sydney songstress Rachel Collis has been described by reviewers as no less than “prodigy”, “sheer genius” (Australian Stage) and “a welcome jolt back to the time of Joni Mitchell and Carole King” (The Orange Press). Rachel is good old-fashioned songwriting, combined with whirlwind virtuosic piano and Celtic–like vocals.

Rachel has released 4 studio albums with ARIA and Emmy-award winning producer Sean Carey, which have grown Rachel a dedicated fanbase in Australia, the UK, the US and Canada. Her songs and stories explore the beauty and spirituality of everyday life. Beautifully-crafted and emotionally honest, each song is an invitation to find connectedness and belonging in the simplest of moments.

With a passion for social justice and inclusion, Rachel is also a champion for widening the tent of who is seen and heard in society. Through her stories of love, loss, shame, and messy, authentic faith, Rachel creates connectedness and a safe space for listeners.

Rachel has performed to sell-out audiences at the prestigious Riverside Theatres, at the Sydney and Adelaide Fringe Festivals, and is a regular performer at folk clubs, music venues and churches in Sydney and beyond. Originally a classically trained pianist, Rachel is nothing short of a virtuoso. She was awarded a Masters Of Music in Composition in 2012.
