Chloe Qisha

Chloe Qisha is a Malaysian-born, London-based alternative pop artist whose sharp melodic instincts and witty lyrics have made her one of the buzziest new acts of 2025. She grew up in Kuala Lumpur before moving to the UK at 16, where she dabbled in music but initially pursued psychology and communications in university—music wasn’t on her radar until an A&R reached out in her early twenties, setting her on a two-year path of industry meetings and self-discovery. Now in her mid-20s, Chloe’s sound nods to 80s pop and indie, blending vulnerability and humor with a dark, playful edge, as heard on tracks like “I Lied, I’m Sorry” and the lush ballad “VCR Home Video”. Her critically acclaimed debut EP and follow-up singles—including “21st Century Cool Girl” and “Modern Romance”—have earned praise from BBC Radio 1, Vogue, Elle, and NME, while her chic, androgynous style and live show charisma have turned heads at festivals like Leeds and Eurosonic.

Despite her relatively brief discography (she only released her first music in 2024), Chloe’s rise has been rapid—her debut show sold out in minutes, and she’s already played major festivals and major media covers. Collaborating with writer-producer Rob Milton, she crafts smart, nostalgic pop that’s both resonant and relatable, pulling inspiration from artists like Christine and the Queens, Olivia Rodrigo, and the ‘80s playlists her parents raised her on. Chloe Qisha is clearly an artist to watch: her music, style, and story are as vibrant and unpredictable as her journey so far, and there’s no telling where she’ll go next.
