Artist Spotlight: St. South

St. South is the musical alter ego of Australian singer-songwriter Olivia Gavranich, who burst onto the indie pop scene with her ethereal vocals and introspective lyrics.

Hailing from Fremantle, Western Australia, St. South began her musical journey as a bedroom producer, crafting dreamy electronic soundscapes infused with elements of R&B and folk. Her self-taught approach to production lends a raw, intimate quality to her work.

St. South’s breakout came with her 2016 EP “Nervous Energy”, which garnered attention for its vulnerable songwriting and lush, atmospheric production. Her sound has drawn comparisons to artists like James Blake and Bon Iver.

“Better Days,” a standout track from her 2020 debut album “Get Well Soon”, showcases her ability to blend melancholic introspection with hopeful melodies. The album delves into themes of mental health, self-discovery, and healing, cementing St. South’s reputation as a rising star in the alt-pop world.

With her unique blend of electronic textures and confessional songwriting, St. South continues to captivate listeners and carve out her own niche in the indie music landscape.
