It is a strong follow up album from her debut &#8216;Self Talk&#8217; which proved to be a huge success. &#8216;Self Talk&#8217; was nominated for a variety of awards including an ARIA, J Award for Best Video, and shortlisted in the Australian Music Prize.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Olympia, real name Olivia Bartly, says:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe record explores how grief and desire are intertwined. It\u2019s referencing a personal tragedy \u2013 the addiction and loss of someone very close to me. But it\u2019s not a project of catharsis \u2013 I chose to submit myself to this experience because I wanted to create from inside it, rather than explaining it. I\u2019ve tried to borrow from my own grief to create its inverse: something joyous. Something beyond myself, something fantastic -something new.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit;\">\u201cIt\u2019s the most personal I\u2019ve ever been, but also the most confident. This album is a force.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Olympia&#8217;s international tour kicks off in London on the 10<sup>th\u00a0<\/sup>September and ends in Brisbane on the 25<sup>th\u00a0<\/sup>October.
