In August 2008, Stringer was invited by Deborah Conway to take part in the Broad Festival project, which toured major Australian cities including performing at the Sydney Opera House.[1] With Stringer and Conway were Laura Jean, Dianna Corcoran and Elana Stone – they performed their own and each other's songs.[2]

In August 2013 Stringer collaborated with Mia Dyson and Jen Cloher and formed Dyson Stringer Cloher. The trio released an EP which featured an individual track from each musician. They then took on the road, playing over 40 shows around the country.[3]

In 2019, Stringer reunited with Dyson and Cloher. The trio recorded a self-titled album in eight days at The Loft in Chicago in April 2019, which was released in October 2019 and toured nationally.[4]

In February 2021, it was announced that Stringer had signed with Milk! Records as a solo artist.[5] In April 2021, Stringer released her sixth studio album, First Time Really Feeling, recorded at Toronto's Union Sound Company and produced and engineered by Chris Stringer.[6]
