Celeste Bonaccorso Focused on Hollywood

USPA NEWS - Wollongong is a coastal Australian city, south of Sydney along the Grand Pacific Drive made famous for its surfing beaches and rock pools which line the coastline. Wollongong hiking trails encircle the forests and rocky cliffs of Mt. Keira which frames the city. To the north, hang gliders launch from Bald Hill and land in the Stanwell Park alongside the City. This is where you will find the amazing Celeste Bonaccorso a passionate and dedicated singer/songwriter/musician making waves with her own style of raw talent focused on R&B and Hip-Hop genres.
Ironically when not at school, teaching Piano or violin you will find Celeste creating sandwiches at Subway just like R&B singer and “˜Rapper Bobby Ray Simmons´ did before he became the “˜Singing Legend B.o.B.´ Like many famous music artists, Bonaccorso knows the meaning of humility, and humbleness and hard work as she slowly builds her “˜Brand´ as many before her have done in the music industry. When I told Bonaccorso that “˜Alanis Morissette´ worked in a factory stuffing junk mail into envelopes, “˜Madonna´ worked at “˜Dunkin Donuts´ and “˜Pink´ had her humble beginnings at “˜McDonalds´, she simply smiled.

Many Australians already recognize her face from the “˜Sony Bravia TV commercials or have spotted her on “The Living Room“ as a dancer in the “Hot or Not“ segment at the Channel 10 Studios in Sydney. Bonaccorso has worked with local and International music producers and beat makers, namely Joshua Richardson of “Tipz“ , Los Angeles and Calvin S “ZHIKO“ from Dublin. Celeste comes from an extremely creative family of fitness champions and musicians and her grounding is nothing but solid making her a much desired 'Brand Ambassador ' for many companies wanting to align themselves with her target audience which is forever growing.

I recently had the honor to interview Celeste exclusively for the United States Press Agency. USPA24: “When did you first realize music was part of your life?“ Bonaccorso: “I have grown up surrounded by music as both my parents are musicians. Ever since I was little I realized that music was a huge part of my life, but it was during my high school years where I knew I wanted to pursue a career in music.“ USPA24: “How has your popularity with your music success affected your social life as you have mentioned you have been working hard at developing your own style for many years?“ Bonaccorso: “At this point in time it hasn't affected my social life, I always manage to find time to spend with friends and family, as well as focus on my music and composing.“ USPA24: “Have you found it hard being young to break into bookings?“ Bonaccorso: “At this age I've had a few experiences but I would like to have more opportunities as I progress in my career.

USPA24: “What inspires you to write lyrics and do you have a favorite musician?“ Bonaccorso: “What often inspires my lyrics is what mood I'm in and how I have been feeling. For some of my songs, they don't relate to me at all and I write music for the listeners to relate to instead. I don't have one favorite musician in particular as I look up to so many artists, but two people I've been admiring a lot lately have been Summer Walker and Ella Mai.“ USP24: “I understand you have been selected as a VIP to attend “˜Under The Southern Stars Concert 2020´ to meet Aria recording artists, what will this mean to you as an artist and do you have an inspirational Australian artist you would like to meet and talk to?“ Bonaccorso: “This is a massive opportunity for me which I'm so grateful to be a part of. As a musician I would be honored to meet some amazing Australian artists such as Jessica Mauboy and hopefully learn something from these talented musicians.“ USPA24: “Many world renowned musicians had humble beginnings, as a musician you are extremely humble and work at subway are you referred to as the singing chef? Where to from here? Bonaccorso: “Although I am not referred to as the singing chef, my friends at work are very supportive and don't mind me singing to myself in the back room. From here, I would just love to continue writing and recording music and hopefully collaborate with other musicians as I love working with other people and building relationships within the industry.“ USPA24: “You have a unique talent how would you describe your music?“ Bonaccorso: “I don't know how I would describe my style, as I love exploring different genres and trying new things. At the moment, I am enjoying writing music within the R&B genre.“ USPA24: “I hear you are in talks with Hollywood producers such as Lucinda Bruce of Lady of the Light Productions can you say anything to the public or is it too soon? Bonaccorso: “˜This is still early stages, there is not much I can say about this yet but I have hope and ambition and really love what this amazing Australian producer is all about.“ With so much going for this amazing Talent be sure if in Australia to catch her live performances at “The Illawarra Music Foundry“ and “The Music Lounge“ at Wollongong Town Hall and follow her Instagram page Celeste_Bonaccorso.

Jean-Michel Jarre is a French composer, performer and record producer. He is a pioneer in the electronic, ambient and new-age genres. He once said, "The value of streaming platforms is estimated at a few billion dollars, and creators can only afford a pizza without pepperoni at the end of the year with the revenues. Without musicians, all those platforms wouldn't exist, so we urgently need an appropriate and sustainable business model for musicians for the 21st century."

Press and media will be watching Celeste Bonaccorso closely and report back on her achievements as of today and we wish all the success her creativity deserves...Namaste!
