BIO

 Australian bedroom-pop artist Jelly Oshen has emerged from Cairns Australia releasing a steady stream of singles since his debut in 2019, clocking up over quarter of a million streams on Spotify so far (300k+ streams).

 The 20yo released his latest single “All Alone” in August 2021 through Cherry Lime Sky / Zojak World Wide, featuring his trademark laid-back super-chill R&B tinged indie pop groove, with airplay on Australia’s national youth radio network Triple J, and the video airing on ABC TV’s ‘Rage’ spawning a Triple J Unearthed Feature Artist spot. 

 "Indie bedroom-pop artist Jelly Oshen continues his rich vein of quality singles with his latest emotive salve, “All Alone”. Jelly has an intoxicating chilled-out R’n’B groove. He has talent nd production skills aplenty, showcasing a crazy amount of talent for a twenty-year-old. “All Alone” has a mega chilled-out blissful vibe. It’s a total earworm."

THE AU REVIEW

 A lyricist by the age of 8, and a multi-instrumentalist by the age 12, Jelly Oshen (pronounced ‘ocean’) found his singer songwriter calling at 14 and has an ocean of material in the bank. Lyrics that stick, his songs transfix, where lo-fi styles meet a production sweet spot. If you want to understand Jelly Oshen think Bruno Mars and Rex Orange County meeting up with Frank Ocean… add a little island flava and you get Jelly Oshen.

 With PNG/African/Chinese/Ambon-Indo and Russian blood flowing through his veins Jelly is a multi-cultural cocktail with a vibe that lifts the spirit.  Born into a musical family and growing up surrounded by musicians, it makes sense when you see the old soul inside of this pure authentic music baby, his melodies and lyrics invoke the feeling and passion of someone with many more years of seasoning behind them.

 On the live front, Jelly Oshen has been hand-picked for some super cool support slots – playing with Dami Im, Emily Wurramara, and Greta Stanley in 2020, and in 2021 opening for Tones & I at Cairns Summer Sounds in Munro Martin Parklands, and Ben Lee at the Tanks Art Centre.  Jelly has been announced for several events in 2022 including Festival Of The Sun in Port Macquarie with Hermitude, Benee, The Chats, Middle Kids and heaps more!
