Solange Knowles makes a very discreet arrival in a black hat and face mask as she leaves Sydney Airport ahead of live performance

She is a Grammy award-winning singer-songwriter with a very famous sister.

And Solange Knowles arrived Down Under very discreetly on Wednesday as she flew into Sydney Airport ahead of a planned live performance.

Beyoncé’s sister, 37, did her best to avoid attention as she left the airport dressed from head to toe in black.

She wore a tweed bucket hat, a black tracksuit and two matching black bags.

A black surgical mask also obscured her identity, but her signature black braids were missing.

Solange is in Sydney to perform at the new Volume festival at the Art Gallery of New South Wales.

The Cranes in the Sky hitmaker will perform alongside 27 other acts, including Sampa The Great, Mount Eerie and Sonya Holowell.

And while the singer-songwriter lives a lavish lifestyle while flying around the world, she opened up about the importance of a home base earlier this year.

The R&B star, who has a net worth of $9 million, recently shared in an Architectural Digest how she turned her Hollywood apartment into her own personal sanctuary with items she collects that she says encapsulate her life.

She even talked about how she writes most of her music from the bathtub, which became a safe haven for her early in her career.

Solange’s center is now an eclectic, minimalist space, with commissioned work from Black artists and an array of trinkets that bring her peace.

As Chloe Sultan wrote Apartment magazine: ‘This loft has seen it all, the private island where her personal exploration of space registers in the small, mundane arrangements of her daily life.’

Solange first moved into the apartment when she was just 19 years old and had a son.

“As my career as a songwriter grew, I wanted to find a place where we could have a little more foundation, a home life there with more stable roots,” she said at the time of her search for an apartment.

“I was a single mother and I was looking for a building with a sense of security when I found this loft space in Hollywood,” she told the real estate magazine, describing it as a “peaceful nest” from the bustling city outside.

“I really felt connected to the Art Deco (1920s) architecture, the exterior and all its original moldings and details,” Solange said.

“I was a single mother and I was looking for a building with a sense of security when I found this loft space in Hollywood,” she told the real estate magazine, describing it as a “peaceful nest” from the bustling city outside.

Since then, she said, “No matter where I’ve been or moved, no matter what friends or relationships have entered or disappeared from my life, this loft has always been a home.

“It’s been one of the most constant, grounding things in my life.”

Solange then talked about how the attic bathtub became her own personal oasis, where she does most of her writing.

“The beginning of that love for the bath actually started in the loft,” she said. “Those days when I would come home from the studio alone, while my son was at school, and that was my safe place.

‘I recognize it as kind of recreating the environment of a womb, the feeling of security in it, trying to recreate that early attachment to my mother.

“The bathtub was my space to care for myself, my body, and my heart, and awaken to what I was called to do and deliver to the world.”

Since then, she said, “No matter where I’ve been or moved, no matter what friends or relationships have come or gone in my life, this loft has always been a home.”
