“The best Australian vocal band since the seekers” Normie Rowe

Renee, with her crystal clear Country music tone, was born on the family farm in Esperance, Western Australia, when her family was forced off the land by hard times, she moved to Adelaide. Stuart, an ARIA nominated multi-instrumentalist, and Quinton, who has recorded and toured with many artists including The Seekers, paid their dues in touring bands often playing 300 shows a year. They finished with the touring life and returned to Adelaide where they met Renee and formed The Beggars in 2006.

The Beggars true blue Aussie sound caught the ears of European DJs who introduced them to millions of listeners putting the band on top 10 charts across the E.U. Their stage presence and style have taken them around the world and continues to gain them fans in many countries. Their covers of I’ve Been Everywhere and The Whale from the 2011 Australian Songbook CD both chart regularly on the iTunes world music chart.
