Sigrid has just dropped the video for ‘Plot Twist,’ the second single to be lifted from her debut Don’t Kill My Vibe EP. Plot Twist is another defiant anthem, twisting through melodic highs and expansive production. Sigrid says: “Plot Twist is about finally getting over someone, but when me and Sigurd Fossen/William Glandberger from FillIn Productions discussed how we wanted the music video to be, we decided we wanted the focus to be on me having a good time with my best friends. We filmed it in Bergen where I’ve lived for two years now, and it was the best day!!”

From the tiny town of Ålesund in Norway, Sigrid has quietly been creating a world which emboldens her followers, displaying amazing song writing ability with hard-hitting and empowering words, laced over unexpected and daring melodies. Performing on Later With Jools and The Late Late Show with James Corden – presented as Apple’s coveted ‘Up Next’ artist – Sigrid has had a huge festival season, storming the stages at Latitude and Longitude, Wilderness, and Reading & Leeds.
