“Cellie for short”

After spending the last few years in Colorado, now Brooklyn based artist Celestine Manno draws creativity from both the fast paced sounds of the city and the quiet life in the mountains, influenced by a multitude of genres from opposite sides of the spectrum. Celestine’s music merges all of these inspirations to create a unique sound that is filled with organic electronic production, live instrumentation, and raw lyricism. She uses vulnerability to lead the creative process in hopes of resonating and connecting with her audience as her songwriting travels through nostalgic times and familiar places, reflecting on the beauty found in the moments in-between.

While working as a lighting designer at a venue in the small mountain town of Crested Butte, Celestine was serendipitously connected with a team of people who believed in her music. Accompanied by some incredible musicians whom she had met throughout her lighting design career, she was given the immense opportunity to travel to Iceland to record her debut album, “Once You’ve Seen It All,” at Floki Studios. A collection of songs that are straight from the heart, it is now available across streaming platforms.
