INGA LILJESTRöM
Bio//
Inga is an Australian/Finnish singer-songwriter and composer whose music has been described as cinematic sonic landscapes. Her style is diverse, with each of her six critically acclaimed albums venturing into new sonic territory. She completed a PhD investigating the creative muse and the nature of inspiration, and recently composed the music for Circles of Rhythm at VIVID Sydney 2026.
Having returned to Australia after living in France and the UK for 14 years, Inga now performs both solo and with a band. Her solo performances combine voice, electric and acoustic guitars, soundscapes, samples of vintage orchestral strings, and live vocal looping. Her animated collages are projected during her performances, creating a cinematic world that moves between darkness and beauty, where vulnerability and strength coexist, drawing audiences into an immersive and emotionally transformative experience.
