Sigrid:

Filling the Main Stage East with glowing wonder, pop starlet Sigrid, shimmering in a sparkly silver top, brought all the fun and energy to the slowly wafting afternoon atmosphere. Approaching both soft ballads and effortlessly cool pop tracks with an equal amount of grace and composure, she was a vision at the centre of the stage, relying only on her talent, as opposed to a host of wild production, to make her impact. Her voice was as clear and pure as a running stream, but occasionally dipped with a small amount of gravel in the low notes, like pebbles rattling against the silvery current. Her poignant ballad ‘Home To You’ was undoubtedly the set’s highlight, as the notes of the delicate keys came tumbling out from the stage in waves, a moment of calm amongst the madness. Most impressive of all was the quiet power that Sigrid had about her – delicate and fragile though she may appear, she is also clearly a woman passionate about chasing her dreams, and who has most certainly earned her place on the world’s biggest stages.
