Marysia graduated with a degree in classical music, specialising in performance on the harp. During this four year course, she started experimenting and expanding the sound of the harp using fx pedals, lent to her from friends on a jazz course. As a harpist making her mark on the London jazz scene, she is a member of Levitation Orchestra and has blessed records with the dreamy sonics of the harp for artists such as Maxwell Owin & Joe Armon-Jones, Puma Blue, Alabaster dePlume, Laura Misch, Yazmin Lacey and Loyle Carner.
Her solo compositions are a blend of classical, jazz and ambient music, which reflects on her forthcoming debut album ‘harp, beats & dreams’. The album documents her journey into music production. Osu’s body of work is entirely homemade, and an intimate dive into her inner world, composed almost as a collection of diary entries and reflections. Her composition process became a way to self-soothe and process.
‘harp, beats & dreams’ releases on October 18th via Brownswood Recordings.
