On Today`s show it was a pleasure to welcome into the phoenix fm studio the wonderfully talented young singer songwriter `Goldi`
Goldi a local Essex girl, grew up listening to Motown and soul music whilst spending most of her young childhood days playing at the back of her mum and dads restaurant. She is highly influenced by that era and holds those sounds close to her heart.
“whenever I hear that old skool beat it makes me feel excited and happy”
She began her career when she auditioned for a musical theatre show of the premier version of ‘high school musical’,where she scored the part as a cheerleader, which at that point in her life she describes as the best thing she had ever done.
Goldi went on to do more musical theatre shows such as ‘Copacabana’ and ‘Hair’, being on the stage was a huge thing and is something Goldi has always wanted to do since she was a little girl.
She is also a songwriter and takes pride in being creative and writing in the moment,
When she moved on from musical theatre, she began auditioning for girl bands and solo projects around London, with success, Goldi chose to begin an artist development deal with an independent record label, where she recorded for the first time. This experience opened her eyes to what she could achieve and what the world had to offer. After her contract ended, she auditioned for other projects, girl-bands etc but was scouted by a music manager which saw her work along side artists such as so solid crew and producers in and around London.
It came to a point when Goldi realised she wasn’t getting enough, always craving more, her desire to succeed drove her to cut all ties and go it alone no management no deals. She met a music production team ‘Knightstarr’ based in Shoreditch, London, through a mutual friend and since then she has been working with them religiously.
