Songs You Know with Toby Gad

How Sigala Went From Bedroom DJ to 5 Billion Streams | #027


Listen Later

From being hungry for fame in the music industry and working at a second-hand store to achieving 5 billion stream, 7 global platinum singles, and 12 top-ten airplay hits in just ten years, Sigala shares his origin story of his first number one 'Easy Love' which famously samples the Jackson 5's 'ABC', to the pivotal moment in his bedroom which led to him create one of his biggest hits. 


Sigala talks about his collaborations with James Arthur, Ella Eyre, Ellie Goulding, Alok, John Newman, and Nile Rodgers, as well as hearing his song on the radio while in the studio with Craig David and playing Wembley Stadium. He also opens up about his initial struggles of making music he likes, how he channels positive, feel-good energy, the philsophy he uses to craft his signature sound and how he has sometimes made a song with over 100 versions.
