FELIVAND is a vocalist, producer, songwriter and bassist based in Naarm/Melbourne, Australia. With a sound blended in alt-pop, alternative R&B and bedroom pop, her music is melancholic, suave and soothingly introspective.

The story of FELIVAND is that of an artist continually growing into herself. Equipped with a Garageband-outfitted iPad in high school, she spent adolescent lunchtime hours secreted away, toying with recordings, initiating herself into the worlds of production and beat making by absorbing and creating as much as she possibly could. Once home, she would upload her self- described “experiments” to Soundcloud at an impassioned rate, enthralled by the enthusiasm of a recently unearthed obsession. In the space of these private, unassuming hours, and her discovery of artists like James Blake, Frank Ocean and Kali Uchis, the sound of FELIVAND was cultivated. It’s a synthesis which gave the impression of appearing fully formed when she self-released a handful of singles in 2018, culminating in her radiant and breezy debut EP, In Bloom, which now garners over 18 million streams combined.

FELIVAND still records in much the same manner as she began, however she has since opened up to outside collaborators, songwriters and producers, transposing her creative process from the bedroom to studio. Freed from the onus of self-reliance her songwriting found new air. 2020 saw the release of her slinky and sophisticated sophomore EP ‘Nerve’ and 2022 saw the release of her long-awaited debut album ‘Ties’, garnering praise from Billboard, COLORS, NME, Rage, Bandcamp, triple j, Rage, 10 Magazine and Lyrical Lemonade along the way. FELIVAND’s honest and vulnerable songwriting continues to be the prism in which she makes sense of herself and the world around her.
