Olympia sweetheart-collective.
The band, comprised of Jordan O’Jordan (Jordan Smith),Twig Palace (Colleen Johnson), and Onyx of Olympia (Onyx Dixon), came together in New Zealand through an un-ironic series of events, culminating in a kind of love-in for playground archeologists seeking the truth at the bottom of music itself. Like the best rounds of jump-rope, like poetry syrup, their voices clicked fast, with sugar in the stirrups. Spindleheart with her sprightly soprano, Onyx and her jaunty sass, and Jordan with his tin-pan croon made kindred spirits in the forest of NZ, and were even known to lead processionals of show-goers down to the banks of local rivers for baptisms by harmony.
