Celine Rae (Born March 20th, 1996) is a Dutch singer-songwriter and YouTube artist. Rae's music takes you on a voyage of discovery throughout her personal life. Emotions get translated into music in a musical style that varies from Paramore to the Common Linnets.
Since she was a little girl, Celine always had a big passion for music. At a young age she sang in church-choirs, singing groups and was always one of the lead singers in every musical school play.. When she entered high-school, Celine got very serious about her passion. She didn’t only want to sing, she also wanted to play instruments. So she took guitar lessons, and taught herself to play the piano and drums. She formed her first band in high-school and entered the competition 'Orion Music Awards'. The band won the band competition with the first price 'Original song'. Unfortunately the band fell apart a while after that, but three of the five bandmates continued together. Celine, MacNaus and Roberto are still playing together in a bandformation that’s called ‘Celine Rae & The 20-73’, together with Martha Meurkens and Mike Attinger.
In 2014, Celine formed a duo with MacNaus, named 'Celine Rae & MacNaus'. They play acoustic pop and rock music at venues. One of those performances was being the opening up program for Dutch singer-songwriter (and ex-member of Di-Rect) 'Tim Akkerman' in 'De Pul'.

Rae wrote her first songs at the age of eleven, inspired by her vision of a perfect environment. An environment where there wouldn't be any social standards and where subjects like 'bullying' and 'depression' wouldn't have a stigma attached to it. Because of personal experiences in this area, Rae's music becomes autobiographic, yet styled in a pop-rock fashion.
In 2014, Celine started recording YouTube covers on her channel. She did this together with bandmember MacNaus. It began with making live covers at home, but soon it got more professional when they met producer Mike Attinger of MainGrounds Studio. Together they’ve made covers that have been viewed over 13.000 times on YouTube.
In 2015, Rae released her debut single 'He Said'. This powerful break- up song was based on personal experiences and displayed her musical style perfectly. With the release of 'He Said', Celine begon a promotional radio tour for the single. She played at Radio Veronica, Radio 1, KX Radio, and many more radio stations. The single got noticed by Dutch phenomenal singer-songwriter Frank Boeijen. Who said: "He Said is a catchy song. It's stuck in my head all day".
