SIENNA SPIRO
Biography SIENNA SPIRO
Sienna Spiro
is the name on everybody’s lips. Hailing from London, this rising starlet is a soul-pop singer-songwriter who performs her heart out on viral hits like ‘Die On This Hill’. With a subtle jazz sound and a dreamy throwback style, she’s an artist you need to know to stay on the edge of the best new music. We’ve got all the details on this thrilling performer as she drops her latest track ‘The Visitor’!
She built herself up on TikTok: Avid social media users might recognise Sienna from her early online videos. She began building a presence on TikTok in 2021, posting several original songs and covers which gained virality before she started officially recording and releasing her work.
Sienna made her first post covering Finneas’ track ‘Break My Heart Again’ on the first day of her studies at East London Arts and Music, aged sixteen. However, online success found her so quickly, she soon dropped out to pursue record label interest. This led to frequent travels to Los Angeles, the international hub of pop music, for collaborations and artistic development. 2024’s ‘Need Me’ officially kicked off Sierra’s era as a true releasing artist.
Her song ‘Die On This Hill’ is more than a TikTok trend: If you’ve caught wind of the heartbreaking TikTok audio, “I know nothing could matter/God I wish something mattered to you”, you’ve heard Sienna Spiro. Released last October, her explosive ballad ‘Die On This Hill’ deals with the pain of staying in a relationship you know you’d be better off leaving. ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ inspired the initial chord progression, as Sienna wrote the song whilst learning to play the piano part of Queen’s iconic hit. At only twenty years old, Sienna’s songwriting is clearly wise beyond her years in these gut-wrenching lyrics, which have made their way to many a fan edit, meme or earnest sad girl storytime.
She’s an old soul: Sienna’s sound opts for a timeless feel, focusing on her powerful mezzo-soprano voice above all else. Her production is simple and organic, making each song feel cinematic with pianos and strings backing her raw, expressive vocal. Tracks like ‘You Stole The Show’ perfectly emphasise Sienna’s artistry as something that would thrive at any point in musical history. It’s hard not to envision her under the spotlight of a smoky underground speakeasy every time she sings.
Plus, Sienna’s nostalgic approach shines through in her aesthetics. Sienna frequently opts for 50s hairstyles, sweet mod dresses and muted, classic color palettes, speaking to those of us who crave a stylistic escape to another reality. If you’ve got a pair of go-go boots in your closet, a Sienna Spiro concert is the perfect place to rock them!
