Jude Austin, Artist name O, is a pop-alternative-blues songwriter, singer, and musician, here to write us into a new era.

He has written 200 songs which lifted him through the experience of domestic violence, the fall away of his close family,
and bullying, as he transitioned from female into his core self as male.

His songs are intended to be that same portal for others.

Jude studied the Diploma of Music Performance at South Bank TAFE 2022, performing Originals and Covers solo and
with bands throughout the year, with one of his teachers (with 40 years of experience), Peter Thornley, saying:

Jude had the most unique voice he'd ever heard, "with the right studio, the right recording, and the right song, I could hear it all over the radio."

A voice that he had lost for 8 months through the transition, then regained as male, and re-trained.

He completed his Diploma of Music Business at TAFE Ultimo and Music Vocal Production at Ableton Liveschool to self-produce and promote his music in 2024.

He completed a Film Scoring Open Academy course at the Conservatorium of Sydney in 2025.

In April 2025 Jude performed an original show at Hayes Street Studio with a 4 piece band. In January 2024 Jude
performed with his 3 piece band at the Gasoline Pony Marrickville.

Jude will release singles from his album between 2026-2028, release his album release, to direct his own music videos, then tour the USA.

His profession for 15 years is as a Film Producer and Cinematographer, shooting the productions of Grammy winners
Rufus du Sol (on 8 of their music videos), Kesha for Spotify, and Baker Boy (where he was nominated as part of a team
for an ARIA for best music video), as well as being on set with Billie Eilish.

Jude's self-produced and directed music video for original song 'White Rivers' has just been selected for the 2026 Las Vegas Music Video Awards​.
