Music News - Greta O'Leary Announces Debut Australia Shows
07 March 2024 - 0 Comments
Spook-folk sweetheart Greta O'Leary (NZ) is dipping back across the ditch for some intimate autumn shows, around the corner from her old share house. Joining her in her self-made universe of alternative-folk is Oscar LaDell on guitar and Davin Ojala on bass. Music to sway to, cry and laugh to.
Melbourne - 11 April @ The Merri Creek Tavern
Castlemaine - 9 April (House Concert)
Having observed much of life one step removed, Greta O'Leary has developed an unmistakably specific lens on the world. A precise blend of cutting grief and unshakable optimism, the breakthrough offerings from this up and coming artist are quite a trip; hypnotic, relentless and poised in a world of their own. Think Angel Olsen meets Vashti Bunyan (down-under)..
“Acoustic, with a free-thinking aesthetic and a refusal to conform” - Muzic.net.nz
O’Leary released her debut singles Honey babe, Outnumbered and Body, Now in 2022, charting on numerous independent radio stations across New Zealand, showcased on national radio, and gained 140,000 views on a self directed music video. Quickly establishing herself as a rising force in the local music scene, Greta was recently the recipient of APRA’s Aotearoa Artist Mentoring programme, and is currently working with mentor Tom Healy (Jen Cloher, Marlon Williams) and a heavy-hitting team on her new recordings. She has played all around Aotearoa with her live band and featured at NZ’s biggest street festival (Newtown Festival), Wellington’s Gardens Magic and Earthbeat Festival.

“O’Leary’s voice is reminiscent of a hāngī pit, imbued with earthy, smokey tones” - UTR
