Royal Drue has been heralded for her powerhouse vocals, captivating lyrics and electric stage presence, and despite being a self professed “pop rock diva”, her influences are wide and unique.

Drue is already a respected and sought after session musician in the Australian music scene, but now it’s time to share her years of hard work and step into the world as a fully realised artist; now is the time for Royal Drue.
