Born and raised in New York to Japanese and Irish parents, 21 year old Cecilia Gault’s diverse cultural traditions informed her musical tastes as well as her own artistic output.
Experimenting with complex musical stylings and effortlessly weaving English and Japanese lyrics, her new single “Nothing” (produced by Jack Laboz) explores ideas of self-reflection, and our desire to be fulfilled. The lyrics are full of double entendres where you can find your own meaning.
Cecilia shares of the song’s origin and theme: “I wrote a couple of the lyrics while heading home from a night out. I was thinking about the idea of the "soul searching" we face every day in modern society. Feeling "lost" in this current digital world is a common and widely shared experience. We look to places to find meanings of existence and spirituality. It is this constant search for places that unites us and brings us to other realms. Places such as churches or clubs where we sing dance and pray.”
Growing up in Lower Manhattan, Cecilia has an innate sense of creative abandon and passionate strive for success, priding herself on her “differences and peculiarities” to be unabashedly herself. Often lending her voice and songwriting skills to progressive house anthems, she has featured on numerous successful tracks, including co-writing and performing Audien's "Higher," the 2019 hit “Love Me Like You Used To” with Kaskade and the Top 10 Billboard Dance Bop "Parallel Lines" by Zookeper. All songs garnering support from Billboard, DJ Times and EDM Sauce, SiriusXM and terrestrial radio.
