​CHLOE MATHARU

Multi Award winning, Scottish Indian singer, songwriter and Celtic harpist.
Chloe Matharu has always felt the call of the sea, the music of the waves. As a child standing on the shore, looking out at the endless horizon, she dreamed of being surrounded by ocean and “feeling a sense of awe at the natural world”.
Much to her parents’ surprise, she decided the best way to do that, to experience life, was to join the Merchant Navy and, in 2013, signed up to explore the world from the deck of a coastal oil tanker.
Matharu says that, unlike an office job or career on land, being at sea gives sailors a different perspective on life and relationships - and the small, everyday things, become even more wondrous.
Matharu songs and music reflects her experience as Navigational Officer in the Merchant Navy and she draws you into her watery world singing of silkies, oil tankers, glaciers and Arctic terns.
She said: “I have drawn a lot of inspiration from the natural world, and the harp also lends itself so well to thist type of music because, in some ways, if the sea could be an instrument it would be the harp. It is really immersive because I want the listener to, hopefully, be lent a little peek into my world when I am on ship”.
