Greta O'Leary

Bio

Spook-folk Sweetheart Greta O’Leary is a songwriter and musician whose pervasive yet spacious sound cuts through the thickest of skins. Poignant, heartbreaking, and occasionally absurd, O’Leary seizes us with her dynamic voice, bending the folk-genre to another plane. Think Angel Olsen meets Vashti Bunyan.

Coming of age during a few nomadic years hitching the globe, Greta’s lifelong love of music was ignited through the folk scenes of Australia and beyond, a contrast to her childhood home of blues and rock and roll. O’Leary began publicly releasing in early 2022, her first single Outnumbered charted on independent radio stations such as BFM, RDU, Radio One and Radio Control, and gained 140,000 views for its self directed music video.

"Writing and feeling is truly all that has ever made sense to me”. Currently being mentored by producer/musician Tom Healy (Tiny Ruins, Marlon Williams), receiving NZ on Air development funding and previous mentorships from the inimitable Liz Stokes (The Beths), Frances Dickenson (Establish Music) and Aston Rd, it is clear this is a fact.

O'Leary released her debut EP Treasure Horse in 2022, and took her live band on a 7 date national tour. “In true Greta spirit it is ridiculous, optimistic, bleak and celebratory.”

At times crushingly fragile, then surging and frenzied, Treasure Horse is hypnotic, relentless and poised in a world of O’Leary’s’ own. Produced by a duo team of Toby Lloyd and Charlotte Yates, it’s a wry journey through the depths of self, bleak longing and an earnest celebration of life.
