Deeply captivating from the very first note, ‘Black Limousine’ showcases Celine’s ability to transcend genres, creating her distinctively unique sound. Blending elements of folk, R&B and soul, with hints of Americana influences, Celine’s vocal delivery soars with passion and emotion as the track builds. A fan favourite at Celine’s live shows, it was written eight years ago about the brutal nature of the music industry. Releasing the track now further highlights how much the track resonates with Celine today.

Speaking of the track, she says, “I wrote the song in my first year studying songwriting in Berlin. This year changed my entire perspective on the music industry and I saw it for the soul sucking business it can be. I was starry eyed and passionate and the more people from the industry I met, the more I realised I would have to work hard not to become a shell of my former self. I met songwriters, singers and managers who all talked about playing ‘the game’, as if it had nothing to do with their love for music. All anyone seemed to care about was success measured by numbers and high profile opportunities.

“The song opens with the line ‘I sold my soul to the highest bidder’, which is exactly what I’ve tried to avoid throughout my career so far. The song is a warning, it doesn’t speak of experience, it’s predicting a future I hope never comes true.

“Although this song speaks directly about the music industry it’s applicable to anyone who has experienced or feared becoming a version of themselves they didn’t recognise. I’ve had many emotional moments performing it and people have come to me with various stories of what made them connect to the song.”

Self-produced alongside Albert Jairo Gordon, new single ‘ur soggy’ moves elegantly between indie R&B and alt-pop touch points. Rooted in defiance in the face of rejection (“I thought we were something cool / but you’re so fucking typical / we can break it down if you want to / either way I’m ok”), ‘ur soggy’ glides through its synth adorned verses, with Daisy perfectly crystallising the dizzying feeling of unease amidst a tumultuous relationship (“and it’s on again / and it’s off again”).

Of the new single, Daisy said: “‘ur soggy’ is a song about rejection… When I feel rejected, I tend to feel quite defensive lol so here I am being defensive & singing a silly little diss track.”

Produced by Ian Barter (Paloma Faith,Izzy Bizu,Gabrielle), ‘Candy Eyes’ is a romanticised ode to the British summertime. With breezy guitar riffs paired with Celine’s dreamy and whimsical vocals, the track explores the first stages of love and the magic of dating in London in the summer.

Speaking of the track, Celine says, “I had a session scheduled with Ian Barter (Paloma Faith,Izzy Bizu,Gabrielle) and didn’t quite know what to expect. After a couple of seconds hearing the demo instrumental for what ended up being ‘Candy Eyes’, I knew that this track had to be an ode to summer. I was also freshly in love, so the lyrics just spilled out of me!

“I left the session thinking ‘surely I’ll have to re-record the vocals and change some lyrics’ but Ian sent over the track a couple days after and my jaw dropped at the final result. It’s the most vocally free I’ve ever felt, I didn’t overthink like I usually would, and freestyled a lot of the melody and lyrics and the catchy parts quickly stuck – and I think that freespirit feeling shines through on the track.

“I wanted to be quite descriptive, detailed, honest but at the same time have fun with this track. As it represents the early months in my relationship and is somewhat of a honeymoon phase anthem. Whether you are in the wrong relationship or the right one, everyone’s had ‘Candy Eyes’ for someone before and it makes you feel invincible. That feeling alone is something to be celebrated.”
