Aimée Britannia

Aimée Britannia van Staden is a 24 year old singer, songwriter, producer and pianist. Originally from Cape Town, South Africa and currently living in Liverpool, UK, Aimée expresses her upbringing through music, mixing her African origin with English influence to create a futuristic fusion of melodic trap, hip hop, electronic and dream pop. Aimée's passion for music began as a child, playing piano with her father. When she was 8 years old, Aimée received the top mark in South Africa for her Initials Piano Exam. Her piano theory background has since allowed her to self-learn music production, and Aimée began recording and producing her own music at age 14 in her bedroom. Whilst her genres range from trap to pop to jazz to classical piano, Aimée's topics are generally forward-looking, themed by dreamworlds, a utopian future, conscious love, social justice and psychedelic experience. "Pool State" is Aimée's leading summer single for her upcoming album, which will also be called "Pool State". Relevant to today, this song represents an escape from the current political climate, urging listeners to create their own happiness and live in the present without letting the state of the world bring them down; "It's like I'm in a pool state, pool state, pool state. Don't text cos I'm M.I.A." Written, recorded and produced solely by Aimée Britannia. Visit Aimée's official website: @https://aimeebritannia.com
