BIO
Sartika is an Indonesian-Australian vocalist who champions the warmest corners of R&B with her intimate, relatable songwriting. Relocating to Brisbane as an adolescent, she honed her skills by busking at festivals and markets, later working with producers and artists like Nerve, JK-47, Jay Orient, Siki Daha and Callum Pask Trio as well as the local collectives SHOKU, Accomplice Collective, Spare Time and NO.ONE NETWORK. As a solo artist and a member of supergroup BBTK, she has performed at festivals such as Rabbits Eat Lettuce, Yonder Festival, Brisbane Pride Festival and Brisbane Street Art Festival, as well as countless gigs across Queensland. Online, she has earned a healthy following for her live loop covers of classic R&B songs, where she flexes her additional skills as a producer and multi-instrumentalist. Through her emotive music, Sartika hopes to champion Indonesian culture while also healing and empowering women.
