If listening to DOOLIE feels like being transported – to the euphoria of an Ibiza dancefloor, or the front seat of a convertible with the wind in your hair – that’s by design.
The Sunshine Coast-raised, now Melbourne-based talent taps into the pop-house of the late 90s and early 2000s with her music, constructing songs that uplift, enchant and evoke a different space and time. Her inspirations range from old school Ministry of Sound mixes through to contemporary Euro dance, with every track she makes anchored by her incredible vocals – which imbue DOOLIE’s lyrics about romance, break-ups and the inner-self with an authenticity that feels instantly relatable.
But DOOLIE’s vision isn’t limited to the sonic. The singer, songwriter and performer designs her own incredible on-stage costumes, inspired by everything from fierce drag looks to the Mugler and Chanel runway shows of the 90s. And as well as making us move and feel with her music, DOOLIE uses her platform to empower audiences. As a type 1 diabetic, DOOLIE has had to learn to embrace her difference, and is vocal about the importance of being proud of what sets us apart.
Now after kick starting her career by playing at festivals like Splendour in the Grass, topping the ARIA Club Charts with her LO’99 feature ‘Stay High’ and amassing over 2 million Spotify streams on her debut feature single ‘Freefall’, the multi-talent is poised to share a stack of new music – meaning a new era of DOOLIE is about to begin.
