Alice Victoria Rose Chater is a British singer, songwriter and dancer. After releasing covers online throughout the mid-2010s, she eventually signed to Virgin EMI. Since then, she has released several singles, the most notable being in "Lola" by Iggy Azalea and "Got It All" by Professor Green.
Life and career
Chater attended the Italia Conti School of Performing Arts in London and signed a recording contract with Virgin EMI Records in 2017. She has written songs with songwriters and producers including Rami Yacoub, Carl Falk, Mark Ralph, Kee Ingrosso and Rachel Furner. Chater released three covers in 2017 before releasing her own original music, covering "More Than You Know" by Axwell & Ingrosso which originally featured uncredited production by LIOHN & Salvatlre and uncredited vocals from Kristoffer Fogelmark. This was followed by a cover of Mariah Carey's "Vision Of Love" and Madonna's "Hung Up". She released her visual introduction video "My Name Is Alice" in April 2018, followed by the release of her first single, "Girls x Boys", later that month. The second 2018 single, titled "Heartbreak Hotel", includes a sample from Anita Ward's 1979 song "Ring My Bell". Her third single, "Hourglass", was released 3 October 2018 and samples the Human League's 1981 hit, "Don't You Want Me", as well as Allie X's 2016 song "Casanova". Two singles, "Wonderland ", and "Thief", were released on 11 January 2019 and 18 January 2019 respectively. On 2 August 2019, she released her single, "Tonight" along with a music video on YouTube. Chater released the collaboration "Lola" with Australian rapper Iggy Azalea in November 2019. The song charted in the UK, the US, Scotland, and New Zealand. The duo performed the song at the International Music Awards in Berlin, Germany. On 21 May 2020 she released another solo single "Two Of Us", with a video for the song following a week after on 28 May. Bizu Yaregal from Euphoriazine gaved it a positive review saying, “Two Of Us” is best described as devastatingly beautiful, and shows a different and more stripped-back side to the performer. Produced by MYKL the song talks about a relationship that is ending, and such a personal topic pushes Chater to showcase the best of her extraordinary vocal ability.
Personal life
Chater was inspired to sing as a child by her parents' opera collection, as well as singers Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston. She cites Etta James, Katy Perry and Madonna as influences. In an interview in late 2019, Chater was asked the inspirations that played a part in the music she create, the pop singer said that she was inspired by Christina Aguilera, Céline Dion and Whitney Houston vocally and Michael Jackson and Britney Spears on her moves.
