Storm

Release date: TBC

 

Talented singer-songwriter SuRie will represent the UK with her emotive and uplifting track ‘Storm’ at the 63rd Eurovision Song Contest.  Combining forenames Susanna Marie, SuRie is a classically trained musician and graduate from the Royal Academy of Music in London. SuRie was recently elected an Associate of The Royal Academy of Music, an honour awarded to former students for their significant contribution to the music profession.
 
SuRie's performance career began at a young age, as soloist to HRH Princes Charles at The Royal Albert Hall.  With her head buried in books as a child, a creative young SuRie was often found writing short stories, poetry and lyrics which swiftly turned into song writing. Her musical style of piano lead storytelling pop is influenced by piano singer-songwriters such as Tori Amos, Regina Spektor, Billy Joel and Alicia Keys. More recently she’s also inspired heavily by the poetic, cinematic story telling work of Emiliana Torrini, Ry X, Agnes Obel and Imogen Heap. 
 
Her debut LP 'Something Beginning With...' was the culmination of a writing and recording process that took SuRie from London to Greece, via Australia, New York, Sweden, LA and Borneo; from her home recording studio in the UK to the state of the art Malmö Live in Sweden. 
 
No stranger to Eurovision, SuRie’s journey started in 2015 where she was a backing dancer and vocalist for Loic Nottet who was representing Belgium coming 4th with ‘Rhythm Inside’ and she returned again with the Belgians in 2017, supporting Blanche and ‘City Lights’ as Musical Director placing 4th. Her Eurovision path continued with invitations to song-writing camps throughout Europe, ultimately being approached to participate in BBC Eurovision: You Decide, with the inspirational pop anthem 'Storm', winning the public and jury vote to represent the UK at the Eurovision Song Contest 2018.
