With over 75 million streams to date, and an incredible knack for TikTok virality, Rachel Chinouriri is fast making a name for herself as an ambassador of heartfelt indie, soothing her listeners with intimate, emotional storytelling. With her 2022 EP Better Off Without, Rachel marked a return to her first genre love, balancing the sadness of heartbreak with summery choruses of hope, while the critical success of 2021’s Four° in Winter marked out her capabilities as a stylistic amalgamator.

Starting 2023 with a spot on the BBC’s Sound of 2023 shortlist, and announcing that she’ll be supporting Lewis Capaldi on tour, Rachel’s year could not be looking brighter. Shortlisted also for the Ivor Novello Rising Star Award, and praised by the likes of theneedledrop’s Anthony Fantano (who named Four° in Winter his #1 project of 2021) and Michaela Coel, and with a headline tour, sold out live shows and support shows with Sam Fender, Celeste, Tems, Kojey Radical, and more under her belt, Rachel’s attention turns to her debut album. Focused on the album being the truest expression of her musical journey to date by centering her own wants and needs, Rachel Chinouriri is ready to share her realest, rawest self.
