Christa Vi, an Australian / German Singer Songwriter living in Hackney, has been building her sound for a number years, self-releasing singles and providing guest vocals for other artists such as Box of Wolves from Canada (Electronic Rumors) and respected Australian songwriter Ben Salter (ABC Music). Born out of a complex relationship with her adopted city of London and it's people, her songs have often been sparked by overhearing strangers' conversations, where anonymous but dense living gives rise to shared snippets of private emotions and insight.
Christa Vi's latest single 'Makeshift Happiness' offers a confident new synthpop direction, whilst retaining the song and personal lyrics as the primary focus. A casual obsession with origami and papercraft inspired the concept of creating something beautiful or functional out of something ordinary- a metaphor for making the best of life's hard knocks.
