A young woman who died after a crash north of Adelaide was a singer, dancer and songwriter who had been caring for her parents.
Odetta Maxwell, 25, who performed under the name Pink Wasabi, died in hospital yesterday, following a single-car crash on the Port Wakefield Highway at Port Wakefield about 11am on Tuesday.
Maxwell was from Port Wakefield.
Her dance music singles Tides and Killer featured on triple j unearthed in 2019.
She was also studying neuroscience and psychology.
"She made music, she sang, she performed, she danced and she really was captivating and she would walk into a room and everybody would know she is and they would want to talk to her," her sister, Isobel Vlahiotis, told the ABC.
Their parents had both suffered brain injuries in separate car crashes, and Maxwell was caring for them at home.
Ms Vlahiotis said her sister was "extremely passionate" about everything she did and had a particular interest in raising awareness about brain injury, mental health and road safety.
Her organs will be donated.
"She really is a shining light and a miracle and her 25 years are the biggest gift that anyone could have given our family and especially myself," Ms Vlahiotis said.
The road was closed for much of Tuesday following the crash.
Eleven people have died so far on South Australia's roads this year, compared with four at the same time last year.
