Enfield local Kacey Chambers is celebrating after being named the next Vodafone Future Breakers winner, giving the unsigned singer-songwriter a fantastic opportunity to launch her budding music career. The Vodafone Future Breakers initiative, launched as part of the Vodafone Big Top 40 partnership with Global, has given Kacey the money-can’t-buy chance to record and produce her single ‘Let It Go’ with industry professionals, as well as her live studio session broadcast online with the Big Top 40.
Kacey first found her passion for music at a young age, before regularly performing in church, weddings and fashion shows. After studying music at college, she later started her own YouTube channel, creating original content for music videos with the support of her family. This culminated in playing local gigs, before finally being recognised as a Vodafone Future Breaker.
Taking inspiration from the likes of Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston, the 23 year old musician mainly produces tracks with a mixture of soul, pop and R&B: bringing something fresh to the music scene by combining both new and old styles of music. Kacey hopes this big break will be the stepping stone to something bigger, including writing, producing and releasing an EP very soon.
On her experience with Vodafone Future Breakers, Kacey commented: “It’s been amazing to record my song live in the studio. The best thing about being selected as a Vodafone Future Breaker is having my talent recognised and acknowledged. It’s a great platform to launch my career from and the whole experience has given me a taste of what could be achieved.”
Fronted by the Vodafone Big Top 40’s very own Marvin Humes, Vodafone Future Breakers is continuing the search for the very best unsigned talent from across the UK to uncover the next big thing in music. Listeners, budding artists, DJs and band members can still get involved and enter their tracks or videos through the dedicated hub where they could win a recording studio session with a top industry producer!
