Circe

  • Claudia Vulliamy

I wrote the melody and lyrics for Circe, sung the vocals and assisted in the music production. I directed, produced and edited the music video. Danceable and bewitching single from rising Bristol group “We wanted to make a song that would get people moving, something full of rhythm, while also keeping it atmospheric and romantic.” After reading Madeleine Miller’s novel about the life of Circe, a minor goddess and sorceress in Greek mythology, Claudia was inspired to write “something witchy, something about her and about feminine sublimity. It’s sort of a love song, but it’s also about awe, aspiration, a kind of reckless longing that resembles worship.” Circe was played on BBC Music Introducing on 18 September.
