Born in the American South (Tallahassee, Florida), Fiona moved to London at an early age and music became a huge part of her life. 

 

Particularly fascinated with the 80s aesthetic and epic, synth pop sound, her influences are rooted in 80s alternative bands like The Blue Nile, New Order and Depeche Mode as well as current alternative pop artists like The Japanese House, James Blake, and Ethel Cain.

 

She also draws heavily on visual imagery of the past, using references like John Hughes’ 80s classics and David Lynch’s eerie, abstract series, Twin Peaks, as a creative catalyst for her debut EP, Catch 22. 

With its movie-like, retro sound, lyrical references, and vintage imagery, the EP romanticises “simpler” times and contrasts them with modern life. The result is a sonic dreamscape for her fellow hopeless romantics who are trapped in a digital reality. While she describes her sound as “melancholy pop”, it isn’t all darkness - her tracks have an ethereal, Summery vibe that could easily soundtrack a long night drive or a skate on Venice Beach.
