Rich and joyous, BANNERS brings it for his addicting and uplifting new single and music video, “C’est La Vie”. Dripping in his indie-pop aesthetic, this new single is set to become a treasured track amongst many. This new release acts as the follow-up to the Vager remix of his collaboration with Seeb and SUPER-Hi, titled “Submarine”.

BANNERS, real name Michael Nelson, is a singer, songwriter, and musician, who is mostly known for his 2017 single, “Someone To You”, which has gained 712.4 million Spotify streams and has been used in a variety of TV shows, films, and commercials, including The Bold Type, America’s Got Talent, Love, Victor, The Voice, After, and Legacies. He started his music career at just 7 years old when he joined Liverpool’s Cathedral Choir, attending every day after school until he was 15 when he went on to spend time at Parr Street Studios, hanging around artists. His father is Ken Nelson who has produced albums for the likes of Coldplay, Gomez, and Badly Drawn Boy. A chance trip to Toronto, Canada with his father led to him making music with a variety of musicians and creating his demo CD that found its way to Grammy-nominated producer Stephen Kozmeniuk (Koz). In doing so, his first single went viral in Canada and he soon signed a major record label and has gone on to become a household name in Canada and the US. He’s amassed a total of 1.5 billion streams, to date, and continues to gain social media engagements, especially on TikTok where “Someone To You” is used frequently. He started 2023 off with the release of a brand-new EP, titled “I Wish I Was Flawless, I’m Not”, continuing to be a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.

Talking about his new song, BANNERS said: “’C’est la vie’ is about all that life throws at you. Being alright with it because you’re doing it all with people you love. I’ve had this song stuck in my head ever since I wrote it. I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing but it’s your problem now.”
