Celeste has won the BBC Sound of 2020.

The soul and R&B singer joins a list of previous winners, including Octavian, Sigrid, Years & Years, Sam Smith, Adele, Ellie Goulding​ and Jessie J.

Easy Life, Yungblud, Joy Crookes and Inhaler all made the top five for the award, while Arlo Parks, Beabadoobee, Georgia, Joesef and Squid were also nominated.

The Brighton-hailing artist, who took home the award for BBC Music Introducing Artist Of The Year in 2019 and the Rising Star Award for the Brits this year, said via Music Week:

"2019 was an incredible year for me and I could never have predicted half of the things that happened. Some of my favourite memories have been the live shows. From performing Strange for the very first time at the Lexington for BBC Introducing, going live with Annie Mac from Maida Vale, to Jools Holland. I’m so grateful for every opportunity I’ve had so far and am looking forward to what 2020 will bring.”
