Cleo Sol is the soulstress you’ve been searching for.

Channeling her inspiration from a source deep within, the singer/songwriter wears her heart on her sleeve in her music, and it pays off in every way. Entering the music industry at a young age, the artist has been building on and bettering herself musically for years - and it seems to have all paid off in her most recent release ‘One’.

With a vibe and sound that echoes that of Beyoncé and Erykah Badu, the soul singer digs deep into her roots and delivers her most authentic self to us, and it’s all worth it when her voice and lyrics uncovers feelings and emotions we didn’t know existed until we heard her music.

After the release of her ‘Winter Songs’ EP in November of last year, it seems she is constantly reinventing herself with her modern and fresh sound - yet stays original and true to herself whilst doing so. Plus, with a combined number of over 7 million streams on the four-track-long EP, it’s clear this singer possesses something special.

We sat down to get to know the creative before she shoots to superstardom, and you can find out everything you need to know about her right here...
