Based in South-East Queensland’s Sunshine Coast region, Olivia Ruth is a musical force to be reckoned with. Whether performing solo, as a duo, or with her band, she is fast becoming recognised for epic live music performances. Her band’s distinctive rock-infused sound is a product of Olivia’s dynamic and unique vocals, impressively-crafted original songs, and a tight and solid group of artists who are passionate about their music. Their gigs showcase a range of musical styles, from gentle acoustic-driven ballads and funky blues-inspired songs through to powerful rock-solid anthems.

// MORE GIGS COMING //

Hi Folks. As more impacts are felt from COVID-19, the closure of venues has unfortunately made a serious dent in our gig schedule.

When the madness is over (hopefully soon), we will be back amongst it again, we assure you.

Meantime, support music as much as you can – buy CDs, buy downloads, buy merch, watch online gigs, donate where you can, and
remember that music is a critical part of the civilization of this fragile planet.

In the meantime, here is a selection of online gigs that happened during the lockdown. Isolation gigs.
