SIERRA doesn't just make synthwave; she sculpts it. Hailing from France, SIERRA's sound is a meticulously crafted tapestry of glistening arpeggios, throbbing basslines, and ethereal vocals that evoke both the neon-drenched streets of a retro-futuristic metropolis and the introspective solitude of late-night drives. Drawing heavily from the golden age of analog synthesizers and the cinematic scores of John Carpenter and Vangelis, she injects a decidedly modern sensibility, creating a sound that’s simultaneously nostalgic and groundbreaking. SIERRA’s career gained significant momentum with the release of her critically acclaimed EPs and singles on labels like Future 80's Records and Lazerdiscs Records. Her music quickly found a devoted fanbase online, captivated by her ability to blend infectious melodies with complex sound design. She's not just riding the synthwave trend; she's actively shaping it, pushing the boundaries of the genre with her distinctive vocal delivery and experimental soundscapes. Her live performances are immersive experiences, translating the intricate textures of her studio work into captivating sonic journeys. Collaborations with prominent figures in the synthwave scene have further solidified her position as a leading voice in the genre. With a steady stream of releases and appearances at key electronic music festivals, SIERRA continues to captivate audiences with her unique brand of melancholic, yet undeniably danceable, synth-driven music. Recent projects suggest a deeper exploration of vocal harmonies and a move towards more expansive, cinematic compositions.
