Majelen: A Lesbian Singer-Songwriter Making Music About Love

Music has always been a powerful way for people to share their experiences, express who they are and connect with others.

For Australian singer-songwriter Majelen, songwriting is an opportunity to explore some of life's biggest themes, including love, relationships, courage, happiness and the experiences that bring people together.

As a lesbian musician, Majelen is part of a growing community of LGBTQ+ artists creating music and building audiences while bringing their own identities and experiences into the music industry.

Blending acoustic guitar, pop-rock influences and live looping, she creates original music with an underlying message of positivity and connection.

Being a lesbian artist in music

Representation matters.

For many people, discovering an artist who shares something of their own identity can make music feel more personal. It can create a sense of recognition and belonging, particularly when it comes to songs about love and relationships.

Lesbian musicians and LGBTQ+ singer-songwriters contribute to a music landscape where more people can see their experiences reflected in the artists they listen to.

Majelen's identity as a lesbian artist is part of her story, both as a musician and as a person. She brings that authenticity into her public identity while continuing to create music that connects with people from all walks of life.

Music about love, relationships and connection

Love is one of the most universal subjects in songwriting, but everyone's experience of it is personal.

Majelen's music explores love, relationships and the connections that make life meaningful. Her songwriting also touches on courage, personal challenges, happiness and the importance of living life fully.

Her approach to music isn't about fitting into one particular category. Instead, she creates songs that reflect the different experiences and emotions that make up life.

For listeners looking for lesbian musicians, queer artists and LGBTQ+ representation in music, discovering artists like Majelen offers another way to connect with original songwriting and authentic artistic voices.

An Australian pop-rock and acoustic artist

Alongside her identity as a lesbian singer-songwriter, Majelen is an Australian musician with a strong background in guitar and music production.

With a Conservatorium degree majoring in Jazz Guitar, she combines her musical training with an interest in pop-rock songwriting, acoustic performance and live looping.

Her live performances use guitar, vocals and looping technology to build layered arrangements in real time, creating a full musical sound from a solo performer.

Her music sits within the acoustic and pop-rock space, with comparisons to artists such as Ed Sheeran and Tash Sultana.

Creating music independently

Majelen is also a professional recording, mixing and mastering engineer, producing much of her own music from a converted Toyota Coaster bus studio while travelling around Australia.

This independent approach allows her to be involved in every stage of creating her music, from songwriting and recording through to the final mix and master.

Her growing RED era brings together original pop-rock releases, with themes of love, life, courage, joy and connection. The project continues to evolve as Majelen releases more music.

Music that brings people together

Although identity and representation are important parts of the music industry, music also has the ability to connect people across different backgrounds and experiences.

A song about falling in love, finding happiness or navigating a difficult moment can resonate with someone regardless of their identity.

That is part of the appeal of Majelen's songwriting. Her music is rooted in positive themes and the belief that life is worth embracing, even when it doesn't always go to plan.

For lesbian listeners, LGBTQ+ audiences and anyone who enjoys original acoustic and pop-rock music, Majelen offers another artist to discover, follow and connect with.
