Olivia's World

Before Alice Rezende would dream in comic strips about a girl’s make-believe getaway, Olivia’s World was already a real place. Part homage to the imaginary world under her own bed growing up, Rezende’s Sydney-based power pop project is rooted in escapist reality. Formed during a two-year minimum wage sabbatical in Vancouver, British Columbia, Olivia’s World came to fruition after a last-ditch effort for a drummer resulted in the recruitment of Rezende’s longtime musical hero - indie pop legend Rose Melberg (Tiger Trap, The Softies, Knife Pleats). Needless to say, dreams became reality and in late 2019, the band released their bright and buoyant self-titled debut via Lost Sound Tapes.

Influenced by the scrappy DIY ethos of '90s riot grrrl and the innate wonderment of all things twee, the group emits a sense of playful fascination through dazzling melodies, doe-eyed harmonies and bright and punchy songwriting. Olivia’s World is a conduit for collaboration; the band’s creative vehicle to compartmentalize the events unfolding around our strange, tumultuous home planet. One demo, two EPs and one lifestyle magazine later, Olivia’s World gear up for the release of their debut full-length album 'Greedy & gorgeous', a vast existential outing assembled over a period of change for the band’s members.
