Biography

The vivid music of Austra is born of the creative force that is producer, songwriter and recording engineer Katie Stelmanis and the most powerful instrument at her disposal - her voice, one that is capable of effortlessly evoking moments of personal and universal drama. Augmented and assisted in live performance by a rotating cast of musicians, Austra's recordings are essays in texture, atmosphere and emotion that increasingly examine the contemporary sensation of being haunted by the future.

Austra Swan Song (Original Score)

Album | 8th December 2023

Swan Song is Stelmanis’ first film score and sees her taking an entirely different approach to music making. Drawing upon her classical upbringing, the synth-based score was composed using only a Juno-106, a Mellotron and her voice, providing dissonant textures and complementary melodies that interpolate Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake.
