What happens when you write a song about Keith Urban — and then sing it in front of him on The Voice Australia? You go viral. And if you’re Kaylee Bell, you turn that viral moment into a global career.
Kaylee Bell is now the most streamed female country artist in Australasia, with millions of fans around the world, tours alongside Ed Sheeran and Kane Brown, and a CMA Global Artist Award to her name. But perhaps what’s most impressive is that she’s done it all as an independent artist — self-managed, self-driven, and relentlessly determined.
Now, Kaylee is entering her biggest chapter yet: a brand-new album, Cowboy Up, and her largest-ever headline tour across New Zealand. Alongside her music, she’s navigating motherhood and proving that betting on yourself is always worth it.
🎧 In this episode, you’ll hear:
• The story of her viral Voice audition performing “Keith” in front of Keith Urban
• What life was like after the internet moment that put her on the map
• The highs of touring stadiums with Ed Sheeran, Kane Brown, and Brad Paisley
• The challenges and freedoms of being an independent artist in Nashville’s world
• The emotional drive behind her new album Cowboy Up
• How she’s balancing motherhood with music — and why this tour is her boldest yet
💥 Don’t miss Kaylee’s inspiring story of chasing a dream from a small town in New Zealand all the way to the world stage — and why this moment might just be her biggest one yet.
