Eastern Texas singer songwriter Celeste Marie Wilson is an enchanting storyteller who draws inspiration from everything around her, while masterfully weaving elements of Southern rock, pop, and jazz into her fresh, alternative style. With powerhouse vocals, along with a relentless work ethic and prolific writing, she leaves nobody in doubt that music is her true calling, winning awards along the way, and with a new EP and singles on the horizon.
With ‘If I sin for you?’ Celeste Marie Wilson demonstrates a layered perspective on the pressure put on women in Southern church culture to steer clear of sin. She tells it by way of a tale of “toxic” lovers; the narrator is transfixed by her lover, but knows he’s someone she’s not supposed to have. She’s like a moth to a flame however, and can’t resist the temptation. With the song’s high drama increasing, we’re made to feel that we want this couple to stay together, until we discover that perhaps freedom and sin are more intertwined than we think.
Celeste’s vocal prowess is backed by rock-n-roll guitars and a head-nodding beat, as she effortlessly belts it out, while when necessary skillfully softening her voice to deliver the lines that need it.
The music video also gives Celeste the opportunity to demonstrate her piano playing, while she’s caught up in a tangled web with a lover who’s destroyed her reputation. She showcases her passion and talent and viewers will be as entranced and entangled as the lovers themselves.
