BIMM's Rising Pop Talent: How Self-Belief & Breaking Free of Toxic Relationships Helped My Music Career | Milena Galasso

"If you'd asked me this 10 years ago, I'd have said 'next question please"

London-based singer-songwriter Milena Galasso makes her own brand of indie pop music that draws influence from her Italian and Serbian heritage. Growing up in a devoutly religious home, Milena always felt the urge to break free and it was music that provided her the creative spark to venture out on her own path.
