Nao is a talented musician tipped to reach the peak of stardom. In the BBC Sound of 2016 round up, she was shortlisted in third place as one of the most exciting artists to watch in the New Year. But it was only last year when the Hackney born singer began to upload her music online and share her unique style of synth-beats and powerful vocal chords with the world. Since then, she has performed on the BBC Introducing stage at Glastonbury and gained praise from peers and critics across the industry including Disclosure and Annie Mac. FKA Twigs fans take note.
