Blending alternative pop and neo-soul, CELIN creates music that explores the highs, the lows, and the realities of mental health, identity, and growth. Drawing inspiration from Stevie Wonder, Amy Winehouse, Allen Stone, and Olivia Dean, the Calgary resident creates a sound that feels both familiar and fresh while captivating listeners with her rich tone, catchy melodies, and intricate lyrics.

CELIN’s debut EP, Purely Chemical (April 2026), is a five-song project exploring themes of resilience and introspection, sharing personal stories that helped shape her. CELIN explains, “Purely Chemical came from a time in my life when I felt overwhelmingly lost, and these songs helped me find my way — I hope they can do the same for others.”

Previous singles, “Pray On” (February 2026), “Red Eye” (2025) and “Purely Chemical” (2024), have been featured on CBC Radio One nationally and played on CKUA across Alberta.
