Pictures: Chloe Stroll debut London show watched by Aston Martin F1 family stars Lawrence and Lance Stroll

“This is me and I don't care who likes it and who doesn't because I'm going to make music that's going to bare my soul.”

As she releases her new single, Canadian singer-songwriter Chloe Stroll played an exclusive London showcase this week, with star family members in the audience.

Stroll has just released Dizzy and treated the select audience at the glitzy The Arts Club to seven pared down songs, accompanied by keyboard on Wednesday night.

Among the enthusiastic crowd were father Lawrence S Stroll, owner of the Aston Martin F1 team and part owner of Aston Martin; brother Lance Stroll, driver for Aston Martin F1; and husband Scotty James, the Australian Olympic snowboarder.

The 29-year-old sang her own songs including, including Dizzy - a stand-out and in a different form to the record, with unusual keyboard runs - Never Get Enough, Homesick, Love in the Dark and Water Over Sand.

She played covers of Lewis Capaldi’s Forever and Billie Eilish’s My Future, and told LondonWorld: “I really admire the artists that are able to keep their authenticity. So I look at Lewis and Billie for sure - I look at Adele - and I look at the people who have been able to say: 'This is me and I don't care who likes it and who doesn't because I'm going to make music that's going to bare my soul.'

"That's how I hope my career goes."

Chloe recently performed her song Pedestal on The Kelly Clarkson Show and she said she is enjoying getting her teeth into the songwriting.

"I think the more that I've been writing and the more that I find my voice in everything, the easier and more fun songwriting becomes,” she said.

As for any further covers, there are options but perhaps not anytime soon.

"There are songs that I belt out but I don't know if they'll ever be covers. I've done Whitney Houstons and the Celine Dions. I love ‘belting’ but probably my shower takes most of the beating," she said.
