Tonia is an alt-pop artist who weaves soul-stirring tales of love, self worth, friendship and navigating life in your twenties. Candid lyrics double up as anthemic hooks amidst a backdrop of fuzzy guitars, crisp harmonies, and a patchwork of production nuances. Since moving to Liverpool, Tonia has taken the city by storm as one of LIMF Academy’s “Most Ready” artists, and as part of independent label 3Beat’s roster. BBC Radio 1, BBC 1xtra and BBC Introducing hosts have praised Tonia’s ability to create “moments of sunshine and warmth”, which also charmed audiences at Kendal Calling, Dot To Dot Festival, The Cavern Club and on tour supporting NYC’s Say She She. In 2024 alone, Tonia released her acclaimed EP Different This Time?, was awarded PPL’s Momentum Accelerator fund, and performed a sold-out show as the inaugural headliner at Rough Trade’s new Liverpool venue.
