Evelyn Ida Morris is an Australian composer, musician, and performer known for experimental, piano-based and post-classical work as well as earlier indie/punk projects. They are an ARIA-nominated artist who first became widely known under the name Pikelet, releasing several experimental pop albums and touring internationally. Later, they shifted toward more instrumental, piano-focused composition under their own name, Evelyn Ida Morris, with music that is often described as complex, emotionally intense, and structurally adventurous. A key part of their career is their work in Australian independent music and advocacy. Morris co-founded LISTEN, a group focused on gender diversity and inclusion in the Australian music industry, reflecting their broader engagement with gender and identity themes in their work. Their 2018 self-titled album marked a major artistic shift, focusing almost entirely on solo piano compositions. These works are often compared to classical influences like Debussy and Ravel, while still rooted in experimental and contemporary music practices. Beyond albums, Morris also composes for film and multidisciplinary art projects, including soundtracks and live performance installations, such as collaborations with visual artists and performance works in galleries and festivals. In short: Evelyn Ida Morris is a boundary-pushing Australian composer working across experimental music, piano composition, and screen/installation soundtracks, with a strong presence in independent and contemporary arts scenes.
