Hi, I'm @liljolie on Spotify and all social media. I write, sing and play the guitar.
I'm Chiara Macheda, singer-songwriter and vocal coach from Rome. I started making music when I was 5 years old taking cello lessons. Over the years I have obtained the ABRSM exams of the Royal Schools of Music in London in singing, choir, cello and solfeggio. For almost a year I have also been interested in the aspects of teaching by starting to attend a course in singing teaching that I will conclude in a few months. Over the years, starting from a classical repertoire, I have also had the opportunity to work in the Jazz and Pop fields, getting very close to R&B sounds. In the last period I have been attending a recording studio that has allowed me to follow and work with different artists as a vocal coach and as an author. I also write for myself, I am in fact developing my artistic project that blends everything that has been my musical path to date.
One Blood is a roots reggae singer-songwriter from the Seychelles Islands, shaped by the spirit of artists such as Bob Marley, Culture, Burning Spear, Peter Tosh and Curtis Mayfield. A self-taught guitarist and vocalist, he writes from a place where spiritual reflection, social awareness and island life meet, carried by warm, unhurried grooves and a classic roots feel. His music has reached an international audience, with over 9,000 monthly Spotify listeners and more than 1,400 followers engaging with his growing catalogue. One Blood learned guitar and developed his voice while living in London, UK, performing as a street artist and absorbing the city’s reggae and sound system culture. After returning to Seychelles in 2006, he recorded his first song in 2013. Two years later he formed the band One Blood with French dub poet Selam; the project ended when Selam returned to France, but it opened the path for his solo work. In 2019 he teamed up with his cousin George Camille of Full Vibes, based in Canada, and released his debut album Reach Out through his own indie label, BloodRoots Music Productions. A second album, JAH WARRIORS, followed in 2022, with both albums now available on all major digital platforms. In October 2023, One Blood released the single “I Found Myself In Africa,” which was selected among the artists featured in the Intercontinental Bienal 2023 for creative and performing arts. Building on this momentum, he is now working towards his next release, a new track titled “Changes,” which he expects to share around late October 2026.
