CELIN creates music that explores the highs, the lows, and the realities of mental health, identity, and growth. The Calgary resident captivates listeners and audiences with her rich tone, catchy melodies, and intricate lyrics. Blending soul, indie-folk, and alternative pop, she draws inspiration from Stevie Wonder, Amy Winehouse, Allen Stone, and Olivia Dean to create a sound that feels both familiar and fresh. CELIN’s fourth single, “Pray On” (January 2026), arrives just ahead of her debut EP, Purely Chemical (March 2026). Written from a deeply personal place, CELIN shares, “I wrote ‘Pray On’ during a time when I was pulled into someone else’s mess, and in the end I sacrificed my self-worth to try and save someone who never made space for me.” Previous singles, “Red Eye” (2025) and “Purely Chemical” (2024), have been featured on CBC Radio One nationally and played on CKUA across Alberta. Reflecting on why she makes music, CELIN explains, “I want to break down barriers and reduce stigmas by showing people the normalcy of the unordinary.”
