7:58 pm - Indie Spotlight Melbourne

Blissful Melancholy is a duo based in Melbourne known for their melodic original compositions.  Formed in 2025, the band consists of Freya on lead and harmony vocals and Sam on guitar, bass and keyboards. The duo blends rock and pop sensibilities with folky/alternative elements to create songs with strong hooks, catchy melodies and relatable lyrics that represent ‘slice of life’ and emotional beats.

Blissful Melancholy spent 2025 writing songs and performing in bars across Melbourne to road test their songs with the odd covers thrown in for good measure. With a lot of material already written and having established their sound, the duo is intending to record and release their first EP in 2026 to solidify their reputation as a must see act in the Melbourne music scene.
