Olive Klug (they/them)

Originally on a career path towards social work, Olive Klug utilizes their gifts for singing and storytelling as a means to accomplish lifelong goals of inspiring emotional catharsis and social change in their audiences. Influenced by artists from Joni Mitchell to Kimya Dawson, Olive’s unfiltered vulnerability is at the forefront of every song. Whether they’re discussing the complexities of the country’s politics or of grieving a relationship, their music conveys this sense of very outwardly figuring things out, which is what gives their music such a sense of communion. Olive’s combination of talents and traits have found them in affinity with a list of touring partners that include The Wood Brothers, I’m With Her, Willi Carlisle, John Craigie and the aforementioned Dawson. They are also a favorite on stage in the festival communities of Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Calgary Folk Festival, Mariposa Folk Festival, Winnipeg Folk Festival, Pickathon, Kerrville Folk Festival, and Back Porch Festival.
