Avante Black

A certified one to watch, Avante Black have been growing from strength to strength following on from 2016’s breakthrough track ‘Drug Money’ which received critical acclaim.
‘Let's Sway’ is a wonderfully infectious follow up It’s alt-pop perfection and will leave listeners instantly wanting to hit repeat.

A project created by Ottilia Kjulsten, a 24 year-old Swedish native living in London, Avante Black cites references as varied as Tove Lo, Maggie Rogers and Lana Del Rey to create their emotionally driven unique synth-pop sound.

Previous releases ‘Imaginary Love’ and ‘Drug Money’ saw Avante Black included in `Best of 2016' and '2017 Ones To Watch’ lists as well as racking up Huw Stephen’s BBC Radio 1 support, widespread acclaim across NYLON, The Line Of Best Fit, Wonderland, Popjustice, Idolator, Spindle Magazine and a Top 3 main chart position on Hype Machine. ‘Drug Money’ continued its trajectory with a remix by Scandi-pop favourites Anna Of The North and a trippy, kaleidoscopic video.

Singer-songwriter Ottilia grew up in the city Uppsala north of Stockholm. With an instinctive way with words, she wrote her first song at 15-years-old. Now living in London, this is just the beginning for Avante Black with a debut album slated for next year.
