MUSICLandNEWS: CELESTAL ft. DEVON GRAVES 'Blackbird (Rework Edit)'

CELESTAL, also known as Cédric, is a French musician and producer whose journey in music began at a very young age. 
Born in Lorraine, France, he started his musical education at just five years old, studying classical music and jazz at the conservatory. 
Over the course of fourteen years, he not only honed his skills in these traditional forms but also began exploring electronic music, merging it with his classical training. 

By the age of 18, he ventured into DJing, a move that marked the beginning of his production career. 
His debut remix of Kylie Minogue's "In Your Eyes" was signed by EMI, setting the stage for his future success as a ghost producer and remixer for major artists like The Black Eyed Peas, Shakira, Enrique Iglesias, and Britney Spears.

Before diving fully into his music career, CELESTAL explored his passion for fashion. He worked with high-end fashion houses and prestigious brands, sharpening his aesthetic sense and deepening his understanding of image, all while developing his unique musical style. 

Influenced by British pop, Stevie Wonder, and house music legends like Frankie Knuckles, Steve ‘Silk’ Hurley, and David Morales, CELESTAL's music is a sophisticated blend of pop, electro, and deep emotion, often with a touch of melancholy. In 2017, CELESTAL officially launched his career under his artist name with the release of his first single. His early tracks, "Naturally" and "Colors, " established his presence on the national stage, but it was "Old School Romance, " his third single released in late 2018, that propelled him to international recognition. The track made its way into the T op 100 Global Shazam Charts and topped the charts in Italy, amassing over 15 million streams worldwide. 

The music video, featuring Fanny Sage, a dancer associated with Yves Saint Laurent and Chanel N°5, further solidified CELESTAL's unique blend of fashion, dance, and music. CELESTAL's success continued with collaborations such as "OUT IN STYLE" with Cecilia Krull, the voice behind the hit theme song of "La Casa De Papel, " and "OVER YOU" with German DJ Sharam Jey and English singer Moss Kena. His 2022 single "BEAUTIFUL LIE, " featuring Devon Graves and GRYNN, marked a return to his signature style—chic pop-folk infused with electro elements. 

The track's success in France and beyond highlighted CELESTAL's ability to craft music that resonates across different cultures. CELESTAL's latest single, "BLACKBIRD feat. DEVON GRAVES, " continues his exploration of indie pop, with a powerful message of hope and resilience. 

Featuring a gospel choir, the song builds from a place of fragility to one of strength, echoing its uplifting theme. CELESTAL describes "BLACKBIRD" as an anthem of overcoming adversity, with the gospel choir adding a crescendo that underscores the transition from vulnerability to empowerment
