My song is called Free, it is based on just letting go of stress and being free with the music. Enjoying the music and just letting go.

This song is the 4th track taken of Charli's 1st ever 'Dreaming Reality' EP

Reggae vibes for this single! I’ve been experimenting with different sounds but I’m loving this sound at the moment.

Once in a while you get a vocal that transcends genres. Silvana, 19 year old London based singer-songwriter creates authentic alternative RnB inspired tracks. Growing up in a household that adored Rnb and having her own personal passion for classical music, she takes influence from both genres and blends them into her refreshing sound, creating her own fusion of dreamy rnb with enchanting orchestric melodies. Her songs allude to depth sometimes amiss in RnB pieces.

Her upcoming single ‘No option’, definitely stands as a testament to this! Collaborating with producer ‘BR’, Silvana’s angelic harmonies and mature tones

evoke a visceral experience taking you through a journey of love, loss and betrayal.

Crafting operatic melodies by stacking different layers of beautiful harmonies that barrell into a distinctive rnb beat, she tickles that painfully triumphant feeling we all get about not being the bigger person and wanting to hurt the person who hurt us back.

Silvana takes influence and inspiration from artists Jhene Aiko, Frank Ocean and Mahalia.

‘No Option’ announces the coming of our next music muse, Keep an eye out as she is not one to miss!
