Gloria de Oliveira is a German-Brazilian multidisciplinary artist and musician. She has been writing and performing music since childhood, at first aspiring to become an opera singer - through a twist of fate she ended up at drama school in London instead, subsequently working for the stage, film and radio, starring in international productions such as Babylon Berlin and Christian Petzold’s Berlinale winner Undine (2020). In 2017 Gloria began releasing demos to the internet with the Synthwave project lovespells, leading up to the 5-track EP Lua Azul. In 2018, Gloria won the Krach + Getoese prize, Hamburg’s award and support programme for up-and-coming musicians, which enabled her to work on her two self-produced EPs La Rose de Fer and Lèvres de Sang (named after the vampire film classics by Jean Rollin) at the analogue studio Clouds Hill Recordings. Both were released digitally & on limited edition cassette through her own imprint La Double Vie and the cult cassette label Dispersion in 2019. In early 2020 her debut album Fascination was released via Reptile Music & Cargo Records on CD and Vinyl, including remixes by artists such as Gudrun Gut, Box And The Twins, Tellavision and Fragrance. In the spring of the same year, she was booked as the support for the Germany tour of the band Tempers, which was ultimately cancelled due to the COVID19 pandemic. However, her live performances throughout Gemany at venues such as Uebel & Gefährlich and Golden Pudel Club (Hamburg) and festivals such as Further Festival and C/O POP, caught the attention of rising booking agency Underground Institute, putting her on a roster alongside diverse and experimental musicians such as Martin Rev, M Lamar and Limpe Fuchs. In 2021, she composed & produced the score for Peter Thiers’ play Paradiesische Bauten, which premiered at the renowned Thalia Theater in Hamburg. In February 2022, she was commissioned to score and invited to play live at acclaimed Turkish designer Bora Aksu's Autumn/Winter 22/23 Catwalk show at London Fashion Week. Her new album Oceans of Time, a collaboration with David Lynch-protegé and sound designer Dean Hurley, was recently released on Sacred Bones Records and recommended as "an ethereal gem" in a 9/10 review by Loud and Quiet Magazine. In November 2022, she performed at Synästhesie Festival in Berlin, headlined by Slowdive, Tricky, Tess Parks, Tempers, and Jon Spencer And The Hitmakers. In March of 2023, she was invited as an official artist to SxSW and performed at the coveted Levitation Austin showcase at Hotel Vegas, among other shows. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Gloria+de+Oliveira">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
