Petite Meller is a purveyor of obscure, visceral pop that celebrates the surreal and the absurd. Meller says: “I only make music for the reason that I didn’t have anyone to dance with,”.

Fans include Radio 1’s Rob da Bank and Huw Stephens, who were blown away by her much talked-about debut single Backpack. Meller currently lives in London and is working on her debut album. She kindly took time to document 7 days in her eccentric and magical existence.
