Artist
Fantine
After a whirlwind 2010 that saw FANTINE tour Australia as guest vocalist and co-writer with SPACE INVADAS ( featuring KATALYST and Steve Spacek) which included performances at Days Like This, Playground Weekender, Future Music, Golden Plains, Splendour In The Grass, and support slots with Lupe Fiasco, the time has come for FANTINE to take the stage solo.
February 2011 saw the release of FANTINE’s debut single RUBBEROOM. Following this is her brand new single ELEVEN.
ELEVEN delves into the superstition and mysticism of the number “Eleven.”
FANTINE (full name Fantine Pritoula) was born in Moscow to a Russian father and a Dominican mother.
FANTINE spent her youth traveling and living in three countries she now calls home; Russia, the Dominican Republic, and Perth Western Australia.
Adapting to new surroundings comes easily to FANTINE and she is not afraid to discover the new and explore the unknown. Her sense of worldliness comes from absorbing the elements of the cultures that surround her and making them her own.
Fluent in Russian, Spanish, English, and French, FANTINE is a unique talent with a musical style that reflects her cultural diversity. Described as a fusion of indie and electro soul, FANTINE maintains an organic sound that is produced through the natural timbre of her voice. Hoping to connect in some way to everyone who listens to her music, FANTINE uses her passion for writing music as an outlet for self expression and places great emphasis on the lyrics she writes.
FANTINE will announce shortly one of the UK’s top indie electro producers who will work closely on the recording of her next single(s)/EP album.
