SIGRID

- @thisissigr­id

Within a year of releasing her first EP, Don’t Kill My Vibe, 21-year-old Norwegian pop ingenue Sigrid took out the BBC’S Sound Of 2018 award (past alumni include Adele, Sam Smith and Ellie Goulding) against other young guns Billie Eilish and Khalid. Now, Sigrid, who hails from the small seaside town of Ålesund, has embarked on a far-flung (and largely sold-out) world tour that has seen her play around Europe and even visit Brisbane and Melbourne, culminatin­g in her Coachella slots. Catch her now to say you saw her first – if her rollcall of beyond-her-years influences is anything to go by (think Joni Mitchell, Chet Baker and Neil Young), there’s a way to go yet.
