E^ST

Australia's E^ST is the working stage name of indie singer/songwriter Melissa Bester. A native of New South Wales, Australia, Bester began writing songs at a young age and by her teens was posting songs online. However, it wasn't until she uploaded a song to Triple J's Unearthed and started garnering plays that a bidding war ensued, landing her at Warner Music. In 2014, she released her debut EP, Old Age, followed a year later by The Alley. A third EP, Get Money!, followed in 2016. ~ Matt Collar
