Mostly Musical Mini 19

Constructor's Note
I will take every opportunity to mention The [16 Down] Empire in my puzzles. They were (until their breakup in April 2022) a group of stellar Australian musicians who wrote infectious songs and played an exhilarating mix of rock, jazz, Latin, reggae, music hall, and any other musical genre you can think of. If you don’t know them, start with their second album, “Two Shoes,“ which is in my top 5 most-played of all time. You’re welcome.

        As an Aussie, thanks for the freebie at 16D! Such great theme density, as usual.
        Also, the hint "a hair growing from your eyelid" definitely made me think it was some kind of medical oddity where the hair grows from the top or underside of the eyelid!

          I feel like Australia and Canada lead the world in great musicians per capita. The whole eyelid discussion has me a bit queasy, so I'll leave it alone!
