She performed her insanely catchy indie-electro-pop track 1993 (No Chill), from her collaboration with Gold Coast producer Paces, jumping around the stage, hyping up a room near capacity.

Ebbing and flowing before the main act of the night, echoing vibes of Ainslie Wills, tracks like Atlantis made Olympia a welcome oasis of soulful sound.

Olivia Bartley better known as Olympia opened the show with a subdued yet engaging performance despite the small crowd.
