Crystal Murray

At just 22 years old, Crystal’s career already holds a number of stand-out achievements. Her 2020 EP, "I Was Wrong," positioned her as a mercurial star, expanding the boundaries of neo-soul with taut, yet tapestry-like lyricism and intoxicating soundscapes – a project she began writing at only 15. "BOSS," became an instant banger after a slick COLORS Studio performance – a shimmering love letter to sisterhood, leading into her frenetic second EP, 2022’s "Twisted Bases." She recently released her highly anticipated debut album, titled Sad Lovers And Giants available everywhere. Sad Lovers and Giants is a tale for adults. When Crystal stopped listening to rap, and started getting back into R'n'b she found new influences in Jeff Buckley, Cocteau Twins, Massive Attack… which caused her music to glide from soul to slick pop and scuzzy rock. To achieve this transition, she has surrounded herself with Kyu Steed, an eclectic profile capable of collaborating with both Amaarae and Booba, Elliot Berthault (from post-punk band Rendez-vous) who encouraged her to embark on the path of hyperpop, Blessed, and Ouri Riou, “a fairy” who also lent her voice to some tracks.
