KYLIE CRANE


Vocalist Kylie Crane was one of the  founding members of one of Australia’s best-loved 90’s alternative bands, Ostia.

Ostia formed in Brisbane, Australia in 1993 and released a handful of critically-acclaimed EP’s including their landmark 1997 mini-album “From the Aether” which peaked at Number 2 on Australia’s independent chart in May 1997.

She moved on from Ostia and formed Friends of Alice Ivy in 2007. Whilst Friends of Alice Ivy shares Ostia’s dreamy, ethereal atmosphere, its sound is somewhat removed from Ostia’s guitar-based textures. Friends of Alice Ivy’s music is enveloped by dark and rich string atmospheres, plucked harps, neo-classical arrangements, and the ethereal voice of Kylie, who sings lyrics steeped in mythology and literature.
