BIG SADS

The multi-talented Perth-born, now Sydney-based singer-songwriter St. South (she/they) has released her heartfelt and deeply moving new EP, BIG SADS.

About St. South

St. South is the creative identity of Perth-born, Sydney-based singer-songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Olivia Gavranich (she/they). Describing her sound as “heartbreak indie-pop that you can feel and heal to,” St. South gained attention with the self-released debut EP Nervous Energy in 2016, which amassed millions of streams and featured on popular TV shows like The Vampire Diaries and The Fosters. This success was followed by 2017’s Inure EP. In 2020, St. South unveiled their debut full-length album, Get Well Soon, which unfolds a deeply personal journey through grief, heartbreak, and self-love.

The New EP

This five-track collection delves into the most intimate corners of her soul, reflecting on themes of grief, love, hope, and healing. St. South transforms personal vulnerabilities—almost like entries from her diary—into beautifully crafted moments of connection. Below, we will be doing a track by track walkthrough of each track.
