About Rhubee

Singer-songwriter Rhubee Neale Napananka was born in Alice Springs. Her ancestors are from the Arrernte Kaytetye, Anmatyerr tribes of Central Australia. Rhubee is also of Irish heritage.

Rhubee's music style is a fusion of country, grass roots, folk,jazz and blues. She continues in the tradition of story telling through her music as she delivers beautiful descriptive and pictorial lyrics and stories on topics of love, heartbreak, life in the red centre, domestic violence and various other topics that are dear to her hearts.

Rhubee writes songs with her sister Letty and plays with band members Ken Smith, Zac Lambert, Georgie Kookaburra and her nephew, Nathan Scott.

Her original name is Sue Gibson which she changed in 2004 to Rhubee Neale. She is also an actor and painter.
