Ollie Olsen: Last Recordings

Listening Lounge presented by Eternal Music Projects: Ollie Olsen with Andrew Duffield & Bill McDonald – Last Recordings.
Join us for a special listening lounge event celebrating the release of Last Recordings, the final body of work from radical Australian artist Ollie Olsen, recorded with lifelong friends Andrew Duffield (Whirlywirld, Models) and Bill McDonald (Paul Kelly, Max Q, DriveTime).

Recorded between 2021–22 as Ollie’s health declined, these sessions reveal a pure approach to sound: deep fm tones, drones and tangled frequencies drawn from his synthesisers with uncompromising intent. These works stand as a raw, essential document from one of Australia’s most vital underground voices.

The evening will feature:
Special guest speakers featuring Andrew Duffield reflecting on Ollie’s legacy and the making of the album. An exclusive listening session of Last Recordings in full in the comfort of the Thornbury Picture House Cinema with its KRIX 5.1 sound system. A viewing of an unreleased short film by Richard Lowenstein.
Limited press LP & CD available exclusively on the night.
