Flamingo is the second studio album by Australian alt-pop singer songwriter Olympia, released on 5 July 2019.

Upon release Olympia said "The record explores how grief and desire are intertwined. It's referencing a personal tragedy – the addiction and loss of someone very close to me, but it's not a project of catharsis – I chose to submit myself to this experience because I wanted to create from inside it, rather than explaining it. I've tried to borrow from my own grief to create its inverse: something joyous. Something beyond myself, something fantastic - something new. It's the most personal I've ever been, but also the most confident. This album is a force."[4]
