OStella is an Alt-Rock Irish Fusion force where sound, sustainability, and connection meet. Based in Edmonton and inspired by PJ Harvey’s song, 'Oh, Stella,' the name celebrates the power of opposites coming together. With a deep connection to the natural world and 8,500 km of cycle touring under her belt, OStella’s about making an impact, not just noise.

With sell-out shows in Ireland and Canada, and performing for Oscar-winner Glen Hansard, OStella's [oh-Stella] alt-rock Irish fusion is captivating audiences everywhere. This is rock and roll with traditional Irish fiddle and bodhrán (sometimes wrapped in thick distortion) and catchy pop melodies that shimmer with rebellion. OStella sings in both English and Irish and regularly engages the crowd to sing along in both languages - whether performing solo or with her 5-piece band. OStella's unique sound deftly combines Canadian rock with Irish storytelling and folk music and draws comparisons to Paramore, Garbage, Lana Del Rey and The Frames.
