Olga's breathtaking voice and majestic songwriting are just two reasons why this emerging artist continues to stand out. Olga brings a soulful and luminous feel to the music she creates - captivating and entrancing any audience. Her powerful vocals and beautiful music represent an emotional honesty that is truly rare.

Although difficult to categorize Olga's music, she has a sound reminiscent of Mazzy Star with a touch of Fiona Apple. Olga's music ranges from alternative rock to folk and blues naming PJ Harvey, Cat Power, Portishead, and Radiohead as influences.

Olga spent her childhood in various parts of the Midwest, but life would eventually take her to Southern California. She attended UC Irvine and graduated with a psychology degree. It was only after college when Olga experienced the passions and pursuits that pushed her to pick up the guitar and sing. A self-taught artist, Olga's natural talent surfaced. It would still be a few years however before Olga would play for an audience.

Olga ended up moving to San Francisco for graduate school and we're glad she did. We don't know whether it was the fog on the bay or the creative spirits she mingled with, but Olga's songwriting truly exploded. At a San Francisco open mic, Olga finally let her brilliant voice break through for all to hear. She has since performed at venues all over the Bay Area and her popularity continues to grow.

Olga's debut album, Pale Light, features songs and lyrics that resonate. Ranging from rocking tunes to melancholic songs, Olga's music is haunting, passionate, and earnest-this new artist is guaranteed to move you.
