HEAVY HOPE: Female producer and singer-songwriter, HEAVY HOPE, merges the genres of Alternative Indie and R&B, whilst touching on Lo-fi and accents of Pop. Her two-faced narratives quickly turn from the spiritual to the angry. The somber and blasé sadness in pining for someone then flips to the opposite end of the spectrum, where hating men for not having enough money is thrown to the forefront.
HEAVY HOPE entices you by providing the calm before her own storm. Songwriting and making music in the comfort of her bedroom from the age of 14 - all of Hope's projects are produced, arranged, engineered, written, and performed by her. She also directs, produces, and edits her visuals, consistently bringing her multi-media passions together.

Pho is known for her big vocal range, high energy and live looping during shows. A dynamic young artist that bounces with ease across genres, ranging from somber, nostalgic R&B to bright, colourful electro-pop that will have you dancing in your seat. The power, sass and closeness of Pho’s voice is bigger than the limitations of genre. Acid Stag acknowledged her ability to experiment with her sound, referring to her single ‘Don’t Wanna’ as an “extremely impressive cross-genre offering that will leave you gobsmacked.” The crown jewel in her fizzing, elasticated blend of genres, Pho’s “soulful vocals” (NYLON) have enjoyed airplay with triple j, Beats 1, FBi Radio, RTRFM, 4ZZZ and more - via her own work as well as collaborations with electronic producers Palais, Chiseko, Tayrell and Ukiyo.
