Brenda Webb is an indigenous Australian singer and actress. Her debut single "Little Black Girl" was nominated for the ARIA Award for Best Independent Release.
"Little Black Girl" was released in 1993 and received radio airplay all over the country. Another song "Melting Pot" (a cover a Blue Mink song) was used by NSW Aboriginal Land Council for an anti-racism campaign.
