All hail Ziggy 2000 – candy princess and self-proclaimed rag doll. With her hushed tone, zany attitude and fairytale melodies, Ziggy is certainly not one to forget. Her vibrant, playful demeanour might seem at odds with the tear-jerking lyricism that she lays bare in her oeuvre. But with a valiant – yet bashful – honesty, Ziggy weaves together songs that bask in the contradiction of what it is like to be sensitive, brave, vulnerable, and most importantly, a girl. The lovechild of melodramatic pop ballads, gritty alternative rock and the brazen gaudiness of early noughties youth culture, it is as if she culminates in a dazzling puff of smoke. Be sure to expect a strong whiff of whimsy, searingly crunchy guitars and powerfully nostalgic melodies that burrow deep into your chest — returning, as if conjured through her magic, back home into your heart. Her latest single “Crushing!” marks a thrilling new chapter in her rise, racking up editorial love across the board — from Spotify's New Music Friday UK, The Indie List, Our Generation, and alt/pop to Apple Music’s New In Alternative. The track also saw her championed by BBC Introducing and selling out shows across Bristol, proving that Ziggy's spell is only growing stronger with every glittering step.
