Inspired by the music of Kate Bush and Fleetwood Mac and having grown up surrounded by music, this Welsh singer and songwriter creates honest, catchy pop songs about love. She debuted with “Anyone But You” in 2018, but it was her second single “System” that got the music scene buzzing. Labelled BBC Introducing Artist Of The Week in 2018, her music has been played on national radio and TV.
Forging a mystical electronic soundscape, her new single sprinkles some contemporary magic on the tune. Using a simple bass strum and bouncy beat to accompany her alluring airy vocals, asking a potential lover to accept both her good and bad sides, it leads into a lively, upbeat and very infectious chorus. With high-spirited vibes beaming from the modern melody, this is a refreshing pop groove.
