Artist

Austra

Formed in Toronto, Canada, Austra has evolved from more straightforward pop beginnings into a project that is well regarded for blending avant garde production techniques with techno and darkwave influences and strongly queer and feminist themes. Founded by composer, singer-songwriter, and producer Katie Stelmanis in 2009, she is the only permanent member of the project, with a rotating live band that has included Maya Postepski (drums), Dorian Wolf (bass, Moog), and Ryan Wonsiak (keyboards).
