Holiday Sidewinder has been dubbed the next pop provocateur following an exhilarating collection of singles, including “unapologetic thot bop” (Huffington Post) Leo -a soaring celebration of sexual liberation inviting “undeniable comparisons to Madonna”. From the “cocky, glossy blur of pure hedonistic glam" (Rolling Stone) we heard with Casino to power-pop anthems like Whispers and Tra$h Can Luv, her debut album Forever or Whatever is one of the most hotly anticipated albums of 2019.

Hailed as “a global pop sensation” (Paper Mag), Sidewinder is taking the world by storm with her captivating live show, including triumphant appearances at Pitchfork Avante Garde Festival in Paris and a star studded club show in NY (with no less than Bradley Cooper, Russell Crowe and Sienna Miller in attendance)! With her electrifying stage presence and contagious spirit, it’s no wonder she has been exalted as “a shining light in the darkness” (LA Record) and “a cut above everyone else in her realm” (Ion Mag). Fun Fact: Sia was her babysitter (for real).
