Olai is a folk pop artist, troubadour and multi-instrumentalist from Sweden. His sound is influenced by music from the 70s and 80s and he writes songs where the vocal melodies and harmonies are in the centre. Having previously been signed to OFC Records in Atlanta, Olai is back now with new songs and a new style.
Olai started creating music at the age of 14 when he played in bands in his hometown. The idea for the artist name 'Olai' and the acoustic sound was developed a few years later when the artist worked as a busker in Australia. He stood on the streets of central Melbourne, playing and singing from morning to night. When others stopped by to ask his name, they struggled to pronounce his first name so he began calling himself by his middle name, Olai. In addition to performing various songs requested by the audience, he also started writing his own music. The songs were acoustic folk pop and indie rock, and the lyrics often revolved around his own experiences and observations in everyday life.
His upcoming single 'I Love Her' (feat. Randler) is expected in August 2025.
- It's the song you want to hear with the lights low and the outside world shut out just you, your musings, and this soft unraveling of two entities attempting to touch in the middle. - Hype Hub Magazine on Olai's latest release
