Begonia is your best f
riend. She&rsquo\;s the whimsical fairy on your shoulder making you feel a
ll at once comfortable to be yourself while simultaneously making you thin
k wtf is this fairy doing here and what is she wearing. With a voice that
compels you to feel everything deeper\, she sings like she&rsquo\;s callin
g you into her world. Sure\, on the surface it may simply look like a worl
d overtaken by flowers\, colour and lightness but go deeper and it&rsquo\;
s also a world that doesn&rsquo\;t shy away from the dark. It&rsquo\;s a w
orld that invites you to be exactly who you are without shame. Her voice i
s like a delicate sandpaper with iridescent grit. Her lyrics will make you
laugh and cry all within the span of a single phrase. A charm and presenc
e that evokes some of the greatest entertainers of the past but no matter
the size of the stage you always feel like you are hearing a secret that i
s especially for you. Begonia has many stories to tell\, many iterations o
f life to walk you through\, and she takes her fans on the journey with a
stumbling grace and an uncanny wit. A true sight to behold\, sometimes clu
nky but always beautifully and refreshingly entertaining. Begonia crafts s
ome of the most honest pop music out there. With &lsquo\;Fantasy Life&rsqu
o\;\, she's simply at the top of her game. There&rsquo\;s more risk\, more
complex vocals\, more pop diva mania\, more feeling\, more truth\, and mo
re fantasy.
