Recent catalogue and background#
Earlier this year, Fielies worked with producer Otnicka on No More Running, an international electronic collaboration. She followed it with It’s Over, a solo pop single that received radio support, including on South Africa’s CapeTalk Weekend Breakfast.
Fielies rose to national prominence in 2017 when she won the 13th season of Idols South Africa, becoming the youngest female winner in the competition’s history. Her sound draws from rhythm and blues (R&B) and pop, and her public profile also includes philanthropic work.
Listeners can pre-save Better through the link in her social media bios. More details on the collaboration are expected as the release dates approach.
