Isabella – ‘Tempo’

East London singer songwriter and instrumentalist Isabella makes an impressive debut with ‘Tempo’, a mesmerising serving of lo-fi soul.

Hazy keys and a crunchy hip hop beat paint a late night backdrop for Isabella’s velvety vocals to light up with intelligent lyricism and delicate high notes.

In a scene brimming over with electronic sounds and production for the sake of production, this is a refreshingly stripped back affair, relying on a small but potent handful ingredients to create a rich atmosphere and mood.

Having grown up surrounded by music with a dad as a jazz/blues musician and a mum as a vocalist, it would seem as though music was the natural path for Isabella who at a young age already seems extremely in touch with herself as an artist.

If you’re a fan of this the good news is that there’s a second single dropping very soon.
