“If Shania Twain + Daft Punk met at an 80s aerobics class, sweatily hooked up and had a gay baby… she would be named ‘Cost of Love’,” shares Bec Sandridge on her latest single. Driven by shuffling drums and hooky guitars reminiscent of the late 70s and laden with Sandridge’s unmistakable voice,‘Cost Of Love’ is without question, a testament to Sandridge’s ability to write a sophisticated and unforgettable pop-banger.

2023 sees Sandridge independently release an EP of tracks titled Lost Dog featuring singles ‘Cost of Love’ and the synth driven single ‘The Jetty’ featuring Andy Bull. The EP saw Sandridge work with songwriter and producer Dave Jenkins Jr (Daniel Johns, Vera Blue), Lucy Taylor (Dua Lipa, Ellie Goulding), Gab Strum (Japanese Wallpaper), Grammy-nominated engineer Geoff Swan (Charlie XCX, Haim) and Tony Buchen (Montaigne). This is the first release since her acclaimed debut album ‘TRY + SAVE ME’ in 2019 which saw Sandridge deep dive into topics of identity, anxiety, coming out, and takes a tongue in cheek look at her upbringing in a pentecostal Christian household. TRY + SAVE ME features singles ‘ANIMAL’,‘I’LL NEVER WANT A BF’ ,‘EYES WIDE’ and ‘STRANGER’, all of which were added to Triple J (AU) & Flux FM (GERMANY) rotation and supported at community radio nationally.



‘STRANGER’ saw Sandridge team up with Tanzer to deliver a stunning accompanying video clip, speaking of the collaboration Sandridge said “Tanzer has this beautiful ability to create the most stressful sexy nightmare that you could possibly imagine”.



A unique, angular and commanding stage presence Sandridge has toured the UK and Europe,lived in Scotland and toured across every state and territory of Australia, having played numerous festivals including Groovin’ The Moo, World Pride 2023, London Calling, Reeperbahn AUSSIE BBQ, The Plot, Festival of The Sun, BIGSOUND, The Hills Are Alive, Big Pineapple, Mountain Sounds and Falls festival. And has supported the likes of Kimbra, The Naked And Famous (NZ), Mitski (US), The Rubens, Yungblud, Peaches, Missy Higgins, Highasakite, Cub Sport and Montaigne. 2023 has seen Sandridge tour across the UK and Europe including shows in London, Amsterdam, Glasgow and perform at Reeperbahn Festival in Hamburg.



A keen eye might recognise Bec as the winner of Triple J Unearthed’s Yours And Owls Festival and saw her sign to Farmer & The Owl (BMG) and International Songwriting Competition finalist (Unsigned category) as judged by Dua Lipa, Chris Martin of Coldplay and Tom Waits.



Other career accolades include performing on ABC TV show Q+A and having a recent placement of her song ‘Stranger’ on Showtime TV show The L Word: Generation Q. A multi-faceted artist, Sandridge composed the 19 song soundtrack for therafter production Ishmael which premiered at Brisbane Festival at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre and Sydney Opera House.
