Described as "the purest voice on radio" (BBC) and selected as one of Music Republic Magazine’s “ones to watch” in 2019, London singer-songwriter, Cerian, is a multi-instrumentalist singing harpist described as a cross between Kate Bush, Joni Mitchell and London Grammar, weaving together soaring melodic vocals and rich harmony with poetic lyrics. Having sung with the likes of U2, Radiohead, Thom Yorke, Sam Smith, Imogen Heap and Charlotte Church, she is now taking on the world with her own brand of contemporary dark ethereal folk-pop and has just returned from playing Glastonbury Festival and touring the UK.
In the last year, Cerian has released three singles to critical acclaim, being dubbed the "voice of an angel" (Music Injection), and her latest single "Caught in the Dark" has garnered glowing reviews and BBC Radio play, and is the title track of her debut EP, to be released later this year.
“Gorgeous... fantastic... quite sensational... I've described her as ‘the purest voice on radio’, and she really is... absolutely adore that." - Justine Greene (BBC Radio 2)
