Black Dahlia follows the beaming light and invites us into the art pop world of The Imposter.
An experimental musician and performance artist, Black Dahlia blurs the boundaries between theatre, sound, and surreal spectacle. Her creations exist in dreamlike spaces where masks, characters, and worlds collide — flamboyant, avant-garde expressions that draw as much from performance art, mime, and surrealism as they do from music itself. Whether inhabiting strange personas on stage or building vast sonic landscapes, Black Dahlia conjures universes that feel both alien and intimately human, inviting her audience to step into the unknown.
Black Dahlia has performed across Europe and Australia alongside Kirin J Callinan, John Maus, Cosey Mueller, and Enola, with appearances at SXSW Sydney, Metanoia Festival, Kalabalik På Tyrolen, and Dark Mofo.
Her acclaimed concept album The Imposter (via her imprint School of Dahlia) unfolds like a surreal stage play. Written, produced, arranged and performed by Black Dahlia, it follows a lone wanderer, The Imposter, who chases an enigmatic light away from a distant Paradise, only to find himself lost between realms, drifting through an interstellar limbo of time and strange encounters.
Step inside, and let the story unfold.
