With the upcoming album &quot;Chin Up Buttercup&quot; behind her, Austra will come to Sweden for a gig at Slaktkyrkan on March 10, 2026.There are voices that not only fill a room but change it. Katie Stelmanis, the brain and heart behind Austra, has just such a voice. Monumentally powerful and at the same time strangely vulnerable.
