Erika De Casier

Portugal-born, Denmark-based producer/songwriter Erika de Casier’s ‘Essentials’ summons the right kind of nostalgia; nimble R&B tunes reminiscent of Aaliyah, Sade and Brandy, updated with a contemporary flair. Upon the album’s release, De Casier became a word-of-mouth pop sensation, drawing praise from Dua Lipa and spawning a Twitter stan account. Her excellent follow-up ‘Sensational’ weaves quick-witted plot lines of botched dates and dodgy liaisons.
