Olive Black releases EP «Reflectō»
Olive Black’s musical odyssey is of deeply personal nature. Her story is not just about music; it is a profound tale of resilience, healing, and the catharsis that art can bring to life’s deepest wounds. Her new EP «Reflectō» embodies this tale. Combining elements of electronic pop, dark pop and R&B, Olive’s music is an unfiltered exploration of the human condition, a testament to the enduring spirit of those who have faced adversity.
Olive Black’s transformation into an artist began in the crucible of trauma. After enduring an abusive relationship, the Swiss-born Austin, Texas-raised artist embarked on a soul-searching journey. The pivotal moment came when she relocated to Switzerland following a breakup, alone and surrounded by pain in a foreign environment. It was there, in her newfound solitude, that Olive began writing and recording music. What started as a therapeutic escape from her demons quickly evolved into a means of processing the trauma she had endured. It was time to tell her own story, shaped by a tumultuous past marked by police brutality, racism, and prejudice in the United States.
