Biography Oh.

There are at least two artists with the name OH..

1. A Progressive Rock and Metal artist from Greece (active from 2013 to present)

2. A Synth Pop / Electronica band from Germany (active in 1999)

1. OH. – is the alter ego of a female composer who lives in Athens, a multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and a sound producer with the unpronounceable name Olivia Hadjiioannou. She announced her arrival to the international music community in 2013, releasing a 24-minute debut EP “Sleeping World” — the song “Trials” later becoming one of the top-50 events to mark Greece at the end of the year after winning an international music video award.

“Sleeping World” (2013) is a cross-over progressive lyrical-song album. Her release caused a stir in the international music press, who compared her vocal talents to stars like Kate Bush, Tori Amos, Happy Rhodes, Céline Dion, Melissa Auf der Maur, Sharon Den Adel and Anneke Van Giesbergen.

Two years later she followed up with a 34-minute conceptual instrumental prog metal album “Synemotion” which was released on a Double Limited Edition vinyl record. Between 2016 to 2018 OH. released four successful single-ballads about love (“Love Will Heal”, “Love of Avalanches”, “I’m In Love” and “Deserted Eyes”). “Love of Avalanches” music video was one of the first handmade virtual reality videos whose innovative workflow was showcased at NAB in 2016 by Mettle. The 3D WebGL interactive experience for the launch of the single “I’m in Love” was nominated on Awwwards.com in 2017. Finally, “Deserted Eyes” has three international music video awards, most recently in the London Greek Film Festival in 2018.

Her new album: “Metallia” was released on July 28, 2018 in the format of a luxuriously designed digipack-CD with a 16-page booklet. The EP includes 6 new tracks with a total duration of just over 25 minutes.

One reviewer said, “if you put Kate Bush, Auf Der Maur, Ayreon, Chiasmata, Igorrr, old White Zombie and Amogh Symphony in a blender with several metronomes running different time signatures, add a healthy dash of thrash riffs to the proggy mix and baked the resulting mixture for several hours you probably wouldn’t even come close to the sound.”

Frenetic harmonic guitar solos, sultry multi-layered harmonic vocals, ecstatic head-banging riffs, fantastical violins, grooving bass lines and furious drums paint the myriad and intricate sonic landscapes of Oh.

Oh. plays guitar (electric and acoustic), bass, drums, violin, piano and percussion composes, performs, produces, mixes and masters in Athens, Greece.
