Bec and Lleyton Hewitt’s daughter Mia channelled her inner hipster on Thursday as she stepped out to play a gig in Sydney.
Mia, 18, who is one half of the musical duo Father’s Favourite, showed off her musical talents as she performed at The Midnight Special in Newtown.
Looking every inch the bohemian rocker, Mia was certainly gig ready in a black leather jacket that she wore under a low cut long black dress.
She completed the ensemble with a pair of retro brown boots as she arrived to the venue.
With her long, wavy locks flowing in the evening Sydney breeze, Mia kept the boho theme going with a long black and crimson scarf that she wore around her neck.
She finished her look with blush to accentuate her cheekbones and a light rose colour on her lips.
Mia’s bandmate Cherise, meanwhile, went for a similar approach in a breezy red dress with a lacy, floral embellishment on the shoulders and a frill neck.
The band’s Instagram page describes the group as a ‘bohemian folk rock duo.’

Cherise finished her look with a pair of floral print boots that she wore over blue and white socks.
The pair appeared confident and in good spirits as they arrived at the venue, sharing a laugh on the street.
The duo’s pre-gig gathering grew by one as they were seen chatting to a male friend on the steps of the venue.

The trio looked to be having a great time as they chatted with the male happily quaffing a stubby of beer as they amped themselves up for the gig.
The band performed their first gig back in August and Mia’s former Home and Away star mum Bec is reportedly keen to steer her in the right musical direction.
While she is best known for playing Home and Away fan favourite Hailey Smith Lawson from 1998 to 2005, the actress also had a brief pop career.

On the back of her television fame, Bec released an eponymous solo album in 2002 and her debut single All Seats Taken hit number 10 on the ARIA chart.
Her album however was met with mixed reviews and her music career effectively came to an end in 2004 when she parted ways with label Warner Music.
A source told New Idea that Bec is keen to ensure that her daughter avoids the pitfalls that can befall new and inexperienced artists.

‘Bec knows how to deal with bad people, dodgy managers, and doesn’t want Mia making some of the mistakes she made early in her career like being too optimistic about certain jobs,’ the source said.
They added that while music is Mia’s current consuming passion, she hasn’t ruled out a career in front of the camera, like her actress mum.
‘Mia is very savvy. She knows you can’t just be good at one thing and that entering the music industry will ultimately see her having to create social media content and putting herself forward,’ they said.
‘Ultimately that can lead to more work like modelling, acting and even presenting.
‘Bec just wants Mia to be happy and working on a career that is going to sustain her.’

It appears that the rockstar lifestyle is also rubbing off on Mia, with the young singer recently spotted smoking cigarettes while hanging out with friends in Sydney’s Rose Bay.
Mia’s parents, tennis champion Lleyton and singer Bec met on the tennis court for a charity game at the Starlight Cup back in 1999.
The couple didn’t reconnect until a few years later and finally met up in person in 2005, before getting engaged after a whirlwind romance that lasted six weeks.
As well as singer Mia, they also share another daughter Ava, 12, and son Cruz 15.
It was recently claimed that Bec could be planning a return back in front of the cameras years after leaving her role as Hayley Smith Lawson on Home and Away in 2005.
