OAKK is the brainchild of Vancouver based singer and producer Cole Edwards. Self-described as “sad boy R&B meets electronica”, OAKK conveys his feelings through melodic soundscapes that offer escapism from the mundane. Emotive music: sometimes depressive, sometimes uplifting, but always pretty.
In late 2022, we saw the release of ‘Butter & Gold’ on Ivy Lab’s imprint TW/TW London which has become an increasingly recognizable track with the mantra “I just wanna say how I feel about you”. It garnered the attention of industry legend Gilles Peterson, making his ‘Best Of The Year’ shortlist in 2022. With steady releases on TW/TW London, a collaboration with the labelheads and an evergrowing catalogue of music that ebbs and flows through a full spectrum of sound, OAKK continues to push the boundary of emotionally driven electronic music.
With notable performances at premier festivals like LIB, Shambhala, Okeechobeee, Bass Coast and a Live Boiler Room, as well as supporting Ivy Lab on their ‘Inifinite Falling Ground’ US Tour, OAKK has been carving out his space in the music and arts world.
