<\/a><\/p>\nIt’s no secret that London is awash with some of the best undiscovered and emerging talent throughout the world, and the city’s very own Amy Steele is out to prove just that.<\/p>\n
The young singer who is no stranger to working with established artists such as The Game and Mario, has just unleashed ‘Bury You Deep’, a track which is a testament to her writing ability and intricate vocals. The track boasts the ethereal, haunting melodies of Ms Del Rey whilst her voice is bursting with the kind of soul that you would normally expect from Laura Mvula. We went in to find out more…<\/p>\n
Give us an insight into you musical journey thus far? Where did it all begin with you and when did you realise that you wanted to be a fully-fledged musician?<\/strong><\/p>\n Singing has always been a part of who I am; I\u2019ve always loved it. Around four years ago I put a demo up on YouTube and got a good response, so I started making more and more music and putting it out, and it just grew from there. It was more of a gradual thing than a specific event.<\/p>\n Has there been any point in your career where you wished that you weren\u2019t a solo artist \u2013 and perhaps wanted the company of other band members?<\/strong><\/p>\n My sister is my manager and she goes with me to all studio sessions, rehearsals and events, so I do have the support of a team, which in some ways can substitute band mates. I love the independence of being a solo artist in that I can express whatever I want in my music in a way that it\u2019s a perfect reflection of whatever I\u2019m going through or wanting to portray.<\/p>\n You\u2019re not shy of past collaborations \u2013 what did you learn from working with established artists such as Mario and The Game?<\/strong><\/p>\n The biggest thing I learnt was the type of artist I want to be \u2013 in terms of helping newer artists. It also helped me further realize my sound and the type of music I want to make.<\/p>\n If you could collaborate with any other artist, either dead or alive \u2013 who would be your first choice?<\/strong><\/p>\n Kendrick Lemar or Frank Ocean<\/p>\n What other artists are you really championing at the moment? Are there any stand-out tracks that you can\u2019t stop listening to?<\/strong><\/p>\n Anything by Sampha or Sam Smith<\/p>\n What song by another artist, do you really wish you had written?<\/strong><\/p>\n Either Comfort Inn Ending by Jhene Aiko; or Running up a Hill by Kate Bush<\/p>\n What is the biggest guilty pleasure track in your collection?<\/strong><\/p>\n Anything by Taylor Swift<\/p>\n How do you think that London has inspired you as an individual as well as your sound and overall aesthetic\/ approach to your music?<\/strong><\/p>\n I\u2019m London born and bred, so I think the diverse combination of influences people and culture has definitely contributed to who I am as a person, which defines the experiences that I have to write about in my music. I love London, one of my favourite places to write is the tube as there\u2019s so much going on that inspires ideas.<\/p>\n What are your favourite brands \/ designers at the moment?<\/strong><\/p>\n I\u2019m a student so for me it\u2019s all about the high street stores like Zara, French connection and All Saints! But every once in a while I love to hit up Balmain, Miu Miu and Chloe.<\/p>\n
