Biography

Neuchâtel, Switzerland (2010 – present)

Olivia Pedroli was born in 1982 in Neuchâtel, Switzerland. At the age of 5, she showed a keen interest in learning a musical instrument and began studying the violin at the conservatory of music in her hometown. She left 13 years later with a degree under her belt. She shares her passion for music with her brother, a professional musician.

After having traveled and worked abroad for more than two years she started writing her own music.

In December 2003, she was noticed by several people in the music industry and was asked to play at a number of festivals throughout the summer of 2004. After meeting Simon Gerber, a talented Swiss musician and singer, who offered to share his experience with her, a project for a first album began taking shape. This album, The Smell of Wait, was released onto the Swiss market in April 2005, under the name Lole. Despite being self-produced on a shoestring budget, the album quickly became a success and was widely lauded by the press and music industry as being a “real find”.

On stage, the talented young artist’s performances, blending both softness and sensuality with electric sounds, were soon being described as mesmerizing. From this point on she started playing to sold-out audiences from Geneva to Zürich.

Hot on the heels of this success, Olivia headed back into the studio in the fall of 2006, once again collaborating with Simon Gerber.
