Rachel Chinouriri - If Only (Single)

The heartfelt new single, co-written alongside Jack Sibley and Daniel Hylton Nuamah, sees Rachel reflect on all she is grateful for. ‘If Only’ once again sees Rachel’s velvet-like vocals float elegantly over the beautifully layered production as she sings about how lucky she is to be in the fortunate position she is. The video for the new single will follow in the coming weeks.

Speaking about the new single, Rachel explains “I wrote this song whilst in Bristol with Jack Sibley and Daniel Hylton Nuamah. I remember thinking about how lucky I was that making music had become my job. Sitting in a beautiful home in Bristol writing and being creative, really made me reflect on all the things I must be grateful for. It’s easy for me to moan about things but I sometimes forget how lucky I am to be in my position. Ever since I wrote this song, whenever I feel frustrated about situations, I just remind myself I am doing what I love, and this is “good stress”. I have always been taught to be very grateful for everything. Seeing how hard my mum worked to care for 5 children, cousins and my sick dad all whilst being an immigrant made me aware of the sacrifices that were made for me to be where I am today.”
