PHILINE

ABOUT

When philine writes a song, she invites everyone to spend a little time inside of her head. 

Her tender voice, delicate tunes, and vivid lyrics grab your attention right away, but it's her wild imagination that really hooks you and, ultimately, inspires. It's as if she's turning her feelings into real-life magic, letting her thoughts dance around in catchy melodies and shimmering chords.

After quietly buzzing out of The Netherlands, the singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist opens up her world on 2024’s the side-effects of living in a fantasy EP.

“During the writing process, I spent a lot of time inside of my brain,” she notes. “I have a huge imagination, and I’m a big overthinker. I tend to live in fantasy more than reality. I get so caught up with how I perceive things and my almost movie like version of life. The upside to it is that with a mind like that, I’ll always have stories to tell. But the thing with a story is, it’s not reality, it’s a story. And it keeps you from living in the actual reality. When that happens, or when reality hits in my face, I isolate myself and become very absent to the outside world. These songs are the moments when I’m captured inside of my thoughts.”
