Star In The Making #10 Miss Blanche

Exclusive Interview with Miss Blanche: Finding Her Sound Between Cultures, Cities and Self-Discovery

Born between Spain and Switzerland and now carving her path through London’s music scene, Miss Blanche is an artist shaped by countries, identities, and sounds. She came to the UK to study music, but more importantly, to become the artist she always envisioned: fearless, expressive, and emotionally honest.

After performing in Spain, building her presence online, and even stepping onto the stage at MadCool Festival — one of the country’s biggest music events — she’s now testing her artistry in one of the world’s most competitive creative capitals. With a sound rooted in R&B, Miss Blanche isn’t trying to fit into one box. She’s here to explore, to experiment, and to grow.

In this interview, she opens up about identity, creativity, challenges as an international artist in London, and the journey toward her first EP.

If someone discovered your music today, how would you introduce yourself?

“I’d probably say I don’t look like my music, because I’m pretty white and blonde, and that doesn’t reflect what I do. I would also say that I just play around with the music that I love and try to contribute as well something new to what we already heard before with my Spanish roots”

As a Spanish-Swiss artist, what has your experience in London been like?

“Kind of bittersweet to be honest, I think, the good part is that London is such a talented city in the arts. I’ve met so many talented people that I would have never met if I stayed at my place, and I love that. I’ve grown so much as a person and as an artist. I mean, they’re used to it, because in London there are so many from other countries that I think they are comfortable with it. At the same time, it’s also complicated, it’s normal, but as a country, you wanna push up your national products much more. So if you’re not from here, it might be more difficult for you, if you don’t speak proper English, without an accent, and without them noticing that you’re not from here, it might also be more difficult for you or at least it’s what I experience. I hope it changes. I would love to continue my career here, but it’s true that I’ve been going through some difficult situations”

What does a good creative day look like for you?

“Of course, if I do a song that I love, it’s a beautiful, creative day or also living any experience. Since I think staying at home every day, which kind of does a lot, doesn’t help you to grow, and then you end up writing the same thing all over again. So, an amazing creative day would be to go out of my comfort zone a little bit and create something new that I feel I haven’t done before and that I like.”

You love R&B — what artists inspire you?

“Can I say artist? Lauryn Hill — she’s insane. I also love Destin Conrad, especially his jazz album, and artists like Sasha Keable. CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso with their PAPOTA EP, I love them, I think they are so cool. Of course, Bruno Mars, Aretha Franklin, and James Brown are classics for me. And there’s a smaller artist called Nao Knox that I really admire too.”

What was it like playing MadCool Festival?

“It was insane, I didn’texpect to play such a big festival so early in my career,” she says, still sounding amazed. “R&B isn’t huge in Spain, so when they told me I got it, I was screaming, calling my mum, calling my friends — like, we made it.”

The moment was big, but so was the pressure. “It was difficult because I like to do big things but I didn’t have a team at the time. I decided to bring dancers, horns, a band — around 14 people on stage — and I had to organise everything myself. It was so stressful. But I’m proud, because it was the exact show I wanted to create. Now I know what I’m capable of.”

What are you working on now?

Miss Blanche is entering a new chapter with her first EP, starting with a single “Will Be Me” released on February 6, with the full project expected later in the year.

“It’s something completely new, this time I’m talking more about myself and my own experiences being an artist. Before, I focused on empowerment and love, but now it’s more personal.” Sonically, she’s experimenting too. “One of the next songs leans more into hip-hop, another into jazz. I’m just trying new things while staying true to what I know.”
