Phoenix O’Neill is a 23 year-old indie pop singer-songwriter based in Watford, North London. Last year, her amazing voice and her intricate, dark songs caught the interest of producer James Sanger, best known for his work with Dido, Keane, Siobhan Donaghy and Brian Eno. Since then, James has teamed up with Paul Kilmister to form ‘SangMister Music’ through which they have been developing Phoenix' unique, haunting and hypnotic sound.
Phoenix's spellbinding vocals have been compared to such talents as Meg Mac, Amy Winehouse and Elle King, with eerie melodies similar to Massive Attack and Portishead. As stylistic overall influences, Beyonce, Christina Aguilera, and Adele were paramount, as was Amy Winehouse specifically for tonality.
“Cruel World,” and "I Need You" her new single, is taken from her upcoming EP "Out of the Ashes" which will be release on April 30th. It has drawn early comparisons to Lana Del Rey, Becky Hill and Lorde. She has recently joined forces with some musicians from Watford and Brighton to form a band and is looking forward to performing around the UK.
