(Victoria Celestine)

With seven years experience in the industry, it’s no wonder 20-year-old multi-instrumentalist Victoria Celestine has such a tight handle on her sparky, quirk-filled sound.

Discovered by producer Gordon Raphael (The Strokes, Regina Spektor) as a teen, Celestine’s career began at the tender age of 13. With a debut album already under her belt, she’s committed to delivering her brand of vibrant electro-pop - think CHVRCHES, if Lauren Mayberry was fed entirely on candyfloss.

“Carrying On” is light and forward-thinking, pairing warm, bright, 80s-style synths with Celestine’s fairy-like vocals. It’s a track that will sit comfortably in your library between lesser-known indie-pop artists and A-list power-popstars like Ellie Goulding. With delicate, catchy phrases gracing lacquer-smooth electronic production, this is one for those who like their pop sweet and fizzy.

“Carrying On” is out 21 April.
