OSKA

Growing up in a small village in Lower Austria, OSKA moved to Vienna at 18 to study her first love. Music. She started busking in streets and squares of the capital while also studying pop and jazz singing. She signed to Nettwerk in 2020 and released her debut EP Honeymoon Phase to critical acclaim. The five songs on the EP amassed more than 5 million Spotify streams and won her the XA Music Export Award at Waves Vienna Showcase festival 2020, got her 5 nominations for the Amadeus Austrian Music Award in 2021 and 2022 (she won “Best Sound” in 2022) and a nomination for the Anchor Award at the Reeperbahn Festival in September 2021. She followed the EP with her debut album, “My World, My Love, Paris”, in February 2022, comprised of 12 songs that see OSKA weave together tales of her family life and the experience of being a young person growing up in the world. With candor and charm, her authentic self comes through in honest lyricism and tender melodies.
