Celeste at Glastonbury 2022

Huw Stephens introduces a performance from one of the country’s most successful new stars. Singer-songwriter Celeste won both the BBC ‘Sound of...’ poll and the Brit Rising Star Award in 2019. Her voice has been compared to Billie Holiday and Amy Winehouse, and she’s been described by NME as ‘the finest British soul singer to emerge in years’. Last year, her song Hear My Voice from the soundtrack of the film The Trial of the Chicago 7 was nominated for an Academy Award. Performing on the West Holts Stage, she’s sure to enthral the audience with songs from her critically acclaimed debut album in 2021, Not Your Muse, which topped the album charts.
