CHILD

Malta-born London-based CHILD transforms the human voice into a boundless instrument of emotion. Born from an innate musical calling and nurtured by preteen years singing in a church choir, Annabelle Galea’s journey began amidst the raw energy of her Church Punk roots. Drawing inspiration from electronica pioneers like Autechre and Luke Vibert, CHILD fuses the soul of analogue warmth with the precision of today’s digital landscape.

With a strong desire to sing, CHILD set off and started her solo musical journey in Brighton where she fully immersed herself in the creative process. There she spent five years in introspection and experimentation, ultimately sculpting the distinctive sound that defies easy classification. With heir first live performances lighting up Brighton’s stages in 2018, and now firmly rooted in London, CHILD invites listeners to explore a realm where the interplay of analogue nostalgia and digital innovation narrates an unspoken story her artistic evolution.

Refusing to be confined by genre, CHILD’s sound is an ethereal dialogue. Her signature approach seamlessly blends emotive vocal expression woven with poignant lyrics with minimal hardware beats and vintage synthesis. This dynamic fusion creates a layered soundscape where raw, expressive energy meets her craftsmanship of electronica, embodying both the introspective qualities of dark ambient textures and the pulsating spirit of dance-inflected rhythms.
