Who is she?

Sienna Spiro is from London, England. She is an up-and-coming artist who recently released her debut album “Visitor”. It was without a doubt a hit. She was already a known artist with her hit singles “Need Me,” “Maybe,” “Back to Blonde,” “Material Lover,” and “ Die On This Hill.” She went viral on TikTok, and it went up from there. Her songs are very emotional songs that people felt like they could relate to. 

Why is she so liked? 

People find her very original. Her style is more vintage compared to modern, and people like that. They compare her to Amy Winehouse, who during her time was a star. Her voice is very unique, with a rasp to it that again makes her very memorable. People hear her voice, and they are drawn in. They also compare her to Adele. Adele is one of the best female vocalists of our time. Sienna is being compared to all these amazing female artists while still being her own original self. She is selling out arenas, and she is only 20 years old. 

Visitor

So let’s talk about her debut album. The album came out in July. Saying it was a hit was an understatement. On Spotify, the album has approximately 164 million streams. The top song on the album, “Great Expectation,” has 102,983,100 streams. She was soft-launching some bits of the songs on her social media, which helped promote her album, but I fully believe it would have done well on its own. I think her album is a breath of fresh air. It’s real. People can relate to her music on such a deep level, and in some ways the music industry was lacking that. She is raw talent. Her voice is real and doesn’t require a lot of autotune to it and that is something we don’t always see nowadays. The lyrics to her music are so deep and meaningful. They show emotion that draws you in as a listener, and I believe that’s why her album is such a hit. Her audience is mainly female, and she sings about things that are relatable, and that makes you enjoy her music so much more. Her songs are written about her own experiences. That makes them more likeable and relatable to her audience. That’s why her album is such a hit. She is just so talented.   

I can see her going very far in her career. She is so talented, from her voice to her songwriting. She is going to have a very big impact on the music industry. She is an amazing female artist, and I think she is going to influence many young females of our generation.
