Wednesday 30th January: Natalia

NATALIA : Debut single ‘Pretty Like Me’ explodes pop gem onto UK music scene



Pop on the rocks - shaken, stirred and uncontrollably intoxicating! That’s the phenomena of the awesome Natalia, a spirited, spanking fresh talent who literally grabs pop by the scruff of the neck and customises it with her personal expression of rocky/soul. Natalia appears live on stage at Chicago Rock Café on Wednesday 30th January as part of their Wicked on Wednesday season and will feature her debut single, ‘Pretty Like Me’.

‘Pretty Like Me’ (released February 25 2008) is a tongue in cheek look at society’s obsession with image. Featuring Bimbo Jones mixes (Usher, Ciara), it confronts how girls can be bullied for not conforming to an ideal. This is a very bold debut statement from a young Natalia who’s outstanding talent led to peer bullying at school – a primary reason why Natalia is now an ambassador for the young people’s charities, UK Youth and Beat Bullying. The video, directed by award-winning Phil Griffin (Amy Winehouse, Bassment Jaxx, The Feeling), is a portrayal of how young people struggle for acceptance.

Natalia is pop dynamite simply waiting to explode. Produced by Mike Mangini (Joss Stone, Steve Vai, Extreme, Annihilator), ‘Pretty Like Me’ is set to add a new raw-cut dimension to pop that’s got to be heard to be believed. The young starlet has also been kicking it live on stage throughout 2007 as she’s toured with some of the biggest names in the industry, including Girls Aloud, Simon Webb and McFly, as well as performing at Amerie’s star-studded launch party.
