Produced by SBTRKT collaborator Tev’n, the track showcases the best of her vocals giving it a perfect hazy atmosphere to her reflections on her hopeless moments of her life. Navigating in between sultry R&B and eerie pop, Celeste evolves in a soulful sleek vibe, where she looks at the past to learn from her own mistakes, expecting for a bright future. She explained about the track:

[su_quote]

“Milk & Honey” is about finding some sort of “Nirvana”, if you like, it touches upon my aspirations of wealth and love and visions I have had dreams about, and reminisces on times of melancholy.

And I think we can say it: the journalists and trendsetters were right! Indeed, the young promising artist has proven that she deserved her nomination! One month after her single “Milk & Honey”, here the video of the B-Side’s track “La Lune”.

“La Lune” is a delicate song that notably comes back to the artist’s childhood thanks to a DIY video that features exclusive footages. It fits perfectly the nostalgic side of the track. As the artist with the velvet voice explains:

[su_quote]“La Lune is a nostalgic nod to a time last Summer where I really badly sunburnt my face, but also about instinctive feelings of being home, without the ‘heat’ of everything[/su_quote]

Look how cute Billie Marten was when she was a little kid!
