About Rachel Chinouriri
Rachel Chinouriri is 2024’s most exciting breakout star. With the release of her debut album What A Devastating Turn Of Events she cemented her reputation as one of the UK’s most accomplished young songwriters. Making the album was a cathartic experience for Chinouriri: by putting the challenges and joys of her life so far under a microscope she traverses themes of life, death, home and belonging, mental health, love and letting go with unflinching honesty, resulting in a one of the most unique indie pop records in years.
What A Devastating Turn Of Events landed in the Top 20 of the UK Official Charts and follows a number of industry nods towards success for Rachel: a spot on the coveted BBC Sound Of poll, and nominations for Rising Star award at the Ivor Novello and Rolling Stone UK awards. Elsewhere, she’s received recognition and support from the likes of Lewis Capaldi, Sam Fender, Sophie Turner and Hollywood darling Florence Pugh, who starred in the video for Rachel’s single ‘Never Need Me’.
Following the album’s release she played a triumphant and emotional set on Glastonbury’s The Other Stage, performed at GQ’s Heroes event and will play her own headline run of the UK this November. In 2025 she will support Sabrina Carpenter on all dates of her Spring UK and Europe arena tour.
With her fiercely loyal fanbase, the ‘Darlings,’ behind her, and over 1.7 million monthly listeners, Chinouriri has clocked up over 180 million streams to date. Over years of experimenting with musical stylings, highlighted in her exploratory 2021 EP Four° in Winter project, Rachel really began to honed a style totally her own with her 2022 EP Better Off Without blending delicate vocals with pure indie instrumentation. Chinouriri’s debut album What A Devastating Turn Of Events arrived to massive critical acclaim from the likes of Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, NPR, Billboard, Vulture, TIME, Teen Vogue, Cosmopolitan, SPIN, and more. Rachel recently made her debut appearance on Later… With Jools Holland, where she performed her acclaimed single, “Never Need Me.”
