At age 14, Denham form an all girl band at school.[2]
Since 2013, Denham has become the Australian queen of trucking songs since the release of her 2013 single "Addicted To The Diesel" and is an ambassador for women in trucking.[3]
In 2019 she was also invited to shoot a video for her song "Black Coffee & White Lines" in Alaska with the cast TV show Ice Road Truckers.[3]
In August 2021, Denham released her fifth studio album, Wanted, an album produced by Nashville-based Brian White ad Brian Bunn. Denham said "This album is something quite unique. It was created to be a musical journey, an experience. I had an idea to mix country rock and old-time western movie soundtracks together. It's different to what I have done in the past but still me. I just decided to make an album that was artistic, and not just a bunch of songs."[4]
