She began songwriting at age 10, went viral on TikTok in 2022 with covers and originals, dropped out of school at 16 to pursue music full-time, and built early momentum with singles like “Maybe” (#75 UK Singles Chart, 2024) and her 2025 EP.Co-written by Spiro with Omer Fedi, Michael Pollack, and Blake Slatkin, the piano-led ballad—sparked by a Bohemian Rhapsody-inspired piano mistake—features cinematic strings by Rob Moose and explores stubborn love, emotional entrapment, and toxic relationships with raw vulnerability and dramatic structure. Live-debuted at KOKO London (September 2025), it earned widespread praise for vocal control and emotional depth.As of January 2026, the track achieved her first UK Top 10 (#9 peak on Official Singles Chart), debuted at #69 on Billboard Hot 100 (week of January 10, climbing), hit Spotify US #23 and Global #47 peaks, amassed 145+ million global streams (over 16 million by November 2025), and contributed to Sink Now, Swim Later surpassing 122 million cumulative streams—driven by TikTok emotional-clip trends and organic virality.Television exposure accelerated crossover: UK debut on Later… with Jools Holland, U.S. performances on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (January 2026), TODAY, and prior The Late Show with Stephen Colbert (via “Maybe”). Support slots with Teddy Swims (North America) and Sam Smith boosted visibility.Her sold-out 2026 North American headline tour, The Visitor Tour, launches March 3–6 at Troubadour (Los Angeles, 2 dates), includes stops at Café Du Nord (San Francisco), Lincoln Hall (Chicago), The Great Hall (Toronto), The Atlantis (Washington, DC), The Foundry (Philadelphia), Brighton Music Hall (Boston), and concludes March 17–18 at Bowery Ballroom (New York, 2 dates)—all 100% sold out across 10 dates.Industry nods include BRIT Awards Critics’ Choice shortlist (2026).
