Cïlja is a new and distinctive voice in the Sámi music scene, where South Sámi culture meets modern pop. As one of the few South Sámi artists in the genre, she blends traditional roots with a contemporary sound, steadily shaping her own signature style.

Her music draws inspiration from Scandinavian pop and electronic production, with soulful vocals and honest lyrics at its core. Balancing melancholy and energy, she creates a sound that resonates and connects.

In 2024, she won Sámi Grand Prix under the name “Bycecilia” — a milestone that marked the beginning of a promising artist career.
