Osska released his first single in February of twenty-twenty-three. What was a great personal accomplishment, it allowed him to join line-ups with artist he greatly admired, as-well-as accomplish his life-long dream to be played on radios both overseas and in Australia, all at the age of 15.

Soft Covers are Laura, James and Dan. After kicking around in a steady stream of bands over the years: Dumb Things, People Mover, Future Haunts, among others; they found themselves with a free afternoon and a last-minute practice room vacancy. After gleefully passing some half-finished songs back and forth, they each piled on, then put the kettle on and decided to finish them. These songs formed the basis of their first cassette ‘Permanent Part Time’, recorded in the same practice room they were written in. Formed in Meanjin/Brisbane, the band is now based in Naarm/Melbourne.
