Genesis Owusu will appear in Season 3 of Netflix’s Heartbreak High, with the cameo revealed alongside a sprawling new soundtrack led by Australian acts and international names.

The new season’s music continues the show’s established formula, blending local acts with international artists across its eight episodes. Australian names including INXS, Silverchair, Amyl and the Sniffers, Dom Dolla, Mallrat, and Budjerah appear alongside global artists such as Charli XCX, Hozier, Dua Lipa, and The Smashing Pumpkins.

The soundtrack spans a mix of legacy tracks and newer releases, with songs from Kylie Minogue, Australian Crawl, and Spiderbait sitting alongside cuts from emerging local artists including Barkaa, Kobie Dee, and Djanaba.

Owusu will make his guest appearance in Episode 4 as himself, where he will perform his tracks “Stampede” and “Get Inspired”. The Ghanaian-Australian artist has been a recurring presence across previous seasons, with his inclusion again highlighting the show’s focus on contemporary Australian music.

According to music supervisors Jemma Burns and Charlie Lempiere, music remains central to the series’ storytelling. “For the final season the creative team went all in with their commitment to homegrown sounds while honouring the show’s global reach. From INXS and Kylie Minogue to Amyl and the Sniffers, every episode is stacked with local legends and rising names alongside international acts,” they said.

Described by Burns and Lempiere as “a raucous blend of the zeitgeist,” this curated collection of songs has not only defined the energy of Hartley High but has actively boosted the profile of local Australian artists to a whole new international audience, making the series an essential platform for contemporary Aussie music.
