She played bass for a support act - 'Water Junkie Manifesto' at Youth Group's Rockfest concert in Rockhampton in 2007.

Kendall attended Rockhampton High School and got involved in youth politics, initially with Rockhampton's Youth Council and later with the Queensland Youth Parliament.

She has just been notified as this year's Member for Parliament for Mackay in the Queensland Youth Parliament.

Despite enjoying the political experience and also being a keen artist, she said music was her true calling and she was looking forward to opportunities for performance.
