Music career

Grimes' first songwriting success came with "Million Miles", a song she co-wrote for Kylie Minogue with Danish producers Cutfather, inspired by being away from her family. She recalls:
‘I just sang ‘I feel like I’m a million, million, million, feel like I’m a million miles away...’ And that was the hook. I could have chosen any subject, they just played me the track they’d built for her sound and asked for lyrics and a top line, but that was what came to me.’

Chelcee Grimes has written songs for The Saturdays, Kesha, Dua Lipa and Kylie Minogue. At the age of 18, she shared the stage with Jessie J. at Liverpool's Cavern Club, having previously played professional football for Liverpool FC and Everton.
Chelcee has written on releases by X Factor winner Louisa, Kylie Minogue, BoA and The Saturdays, also racking up song-writing credits for Dua Lipa, Kesha, Mic Lowry, Stanaj and Chris Lane.
