Known for her exotic looks and her rich voice full of attitude;



Chess is an artist, a songwriter, dancer, and top-line melody writer. Growing up in Malta, she began learning piano and music theory at aged 5 and was surrounded by classical music and Queen records. She has developed a 4 octave vocal range.



The 90's pop explosion sparked her love for pop music and a little later on, she discovered EDM. Chess studied at the Academy of Contemporary Music in the UK and since then she has solely managed to gain radio airplay in 3 countries including Australia, Malta and the UK. Not forgetting to mention a number 1 in the Maltese radio charts, 'Stilettos'.



She has also been busy with TV and radio appearances as well as featuring in some influential magazines both printed and online. Some to mention are: Creation 5, After Nyne and Times of Malta.



Chess also works collaboratively with DJ's and artists from all over the world, including a Ministry of Sound DJ, Xenia Ghali, and recently well-known DJ Dario Synth. Chess has released 2 EP's - Babygirl and Tuxedo - and both projects were the result of 2 successful kickstarter campaigns where she received donations from all over the world. Her 2nd EP Tuxedo, managed to get her radio airplay on BBC Introducing, where the single Vanity was described as 'a cracker of a tune!!!' by the presenter. Her tracks have also been featured on Best of British Unsigned podcast.



Chess performed these EP's at the Bedford, Balham and many other significant places in London such as The Luxe and The Old Queens Head, Islington and festivals around the UK. Other big performances include Bay Music Awards, which had an audience of 4,000, and The Farson's Beer Festival, which had an audience of 2,000.
