Olivia De Melo & Keeley Connolly Make A Perfect Blend With Single 'Coffee' ft. Michael Kay & Muranji

Olivia De Melo and Keeley Connolly are teaming up for a collab smooth as creamer in their newest single, ‘Coffee', featuring the talents of Muranji and Michael Kay, dropping on Friday, March 21.

This single is the collaboration between Olivia De Melo and Keeley Connolly, who crossed paths years ago in the Western Australian music scene and clicked together like a puzzle piece. They state:

"It was only a matter of time before we became lifelong friends and inevitable collaborators. We’re stoked to share this fresh, yet familiar vibe that captures our growth and the worlds we’re merging."

For the unacquainted, Olivia De Melo is a fixture of Perth’s music scene, known for her multi-genre but still recognisable sound, marked through her distinctive vocals, rich harmonies and fluid melody lines. Olivia has performed at many of Western Australia’s most iconic venues and with some incredible artists, including Abbe May, Dulcie, Nick Cunningham, Timothy Nelson, Joan & The Giants, Otiuh, Old Blood, and many others. Keeley Connolly's presence is just as impressive, having supported Kim Churchill and Slumberjack, as well as Ralph Lauren using her music for an international campaign, all the while working as a teacher to nurture the future generation of musicians.

Their new single is slow, electronic, easy breezy and a little solemn. With its contemplative, meditative melodies and gentle melodic alt-pop vocals over a chilled-out lo-fi beat, this song feels like the peaceful end of a house party. The dreamy indie tunes that Olivia and Keeley bring to the track are balanced with the smooth rap flow from Tanzanian artist Muranji and charming R&B vocals from Zambian-born, Melbourne-based Michael Kay, whose distinctive sounds help lift up the message of the track.

With lyrics that delve into the fumbles and mumbles of life, along with the softer moments, this track is a chill ode to quiet self-reflection. The duo share that,

"This track is like a coffee break for the soul — reflecting on those drunk texts, life’s little regrets, and the messiness of it all. It’s cheeky, but it’s about knowing you’ll always find your way, even through the chaos."

There's no doubt that Olivia De Melo and Keeley Connolly have brewed up a perfect blend with this new single featuring Muranji and Michael Kay. 'Coffee' is out everywhere Friday, March 21.
